while sitting by my window
a Cooper's lands
in the Japanese Lilac
surveying
his larder
as he perceives it.
squirrels are unfazed
birds have vanished.
yes, doves and pigeons are favourites around here too. they can't take off as quickly. plus they're a good sized meal😋
@holon42 Cooper's hawks are my favorite. I see them frequently in the mesquite tree in my front yard. The doves don' like them and fly away. The hawks like the doves because they are very tasty.
