I love watching birds of prey. We get a great many hawks here. Their confidence in flight is breathtaking. In case you’re ever interested, I wrote a post about it called “Hawks” at https://alawyersprayers.com/2014/06/22/hawks/. (You’re welcome to delete the plug.)
Ok it could be a cooper’s hawk, a rough legged hawk or a sharp shinned hawk. Thanks to Dr. Garland for not getting the tail feathers so we can’t tell. Sigh

Hahahahaha great pic though and thanks for sharing.
Wayment wayment wayment, now you’re a photo critic??? Listen here…just kidding, my former self would’ve told you something lol
So, that’s interesting because we have a restaurant named Cooper’s Hawk and I didn’t realize there was a bird named that. Now I have to pay attention to bird feathers…sheesh! All jokes aside, I think it is a Cooper’s Hawk because the tail doesn’t seem long enough to be the other one. I’m impressed that you even know these things. And yes, you are #PettyPendegrass on this one lol
Aaaah! Didn’t even think of that connection. If I only I could be this focused when I pose 😉 on a separate note, Hawks are also known for being intuitive so when you see one it’s a not so gentle reminder to use your instinct.
Looks like they’re paying attention to you too! It’s really cool. We have an eagle nest in one of ‘our’ trees. It is massive! Eagles circle above us sometimes- such an elegant bird!
Right! They’re like fly little writer fly 😉 so I thought this might be an eagle but I wasn’t sure. When it flew away its wings were huge!!! That’s pretty cool Mek!
A hawk yes! My amateur twitching skills can’t differentiate between eagle, hawk and falcon. But it is definately wedgetail eagles at our place. Ok- just making a coffee in anticipation of an email to read once it’s done 😛
