Description
It is a bit intimidating to look out at the bird feeder and see these red eyes staring back at you! I am thankful I am not a small bird. This Cooper Hawk was being lazy and waiting for dinner to come to him on this day.
Cooper's Hawk are common throughout Ohio and reside in woodlands. Their wingspan is actually rather short which gives them the ability to chase prey through the trees of the forests. They have been known to even run on the ground in pursuit! Nestlings have gray eyes that turn bright yellow at about 1 year of age and finally become dark red in adulthood.
I let this guy rest for a few moments and in spite of my husband's comment that big birds need to eat too, I chased him off my feeder!
