Description
The Cooper's Hawk is the “chicken hawk” of colonial America, this medium-sized accipiter is a common sight at home bird feeders across the country, swooping in to nab an unwary dove or jay. Females are larger and bulkier than males, juveniles differ from adults. Length 14–20"; wingspan 29–37"
I photographed this wild mating pair on the grounds of the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum - Tucson, Arizona
