20140708 450 Cooper’s Hawk (juv).jpg

Ottawa West

This young Cooper's was just relaxing on a low branch of an Oak tree after having just finished dinner. Presently it is looking around and up to see what its siblings are doing. One sibling is perched higher and having lunch whilst the third is eagerly looking on but not daring to join or steal the meal.

Great position. Wonderful catch, they are so flighty, although I see you are using a long lens.
