Immature Hawk

dallas

I was walking down the path today when this guy swooped over my head and tried to pick up a 10 lb. feral cat. He needs his mom to teach him how to hunt. The cat must have heard him, and ducked for cover, but what a shot it could have been. I was able to track him down, and he asked me to take his picture, and not to tell on him. Ok. I know where he lives, and the next pictures will be in the air I hope.

good you had your camera at the ready

good capture of a Cooper's Hawk, not sure on age but if he was trying to nail a kitty he couldn't be to old or to smart :lol4
