Cooper's Hawk - (Accipiter cooperii) - Epervier de Cooper

A pair of Cooper's hawks (Accipiter cooperii) is nesting in a woods within the limits of Ottawa and are proving to be a favourite subject for local photographers. I am hoping to be able to follow this family photographically throughout their development.
