🌎 Cooper's Hawk (Astur cooperii) The Cooper's Hawk is a medium-sized bird of prey with short, rounded wings and a long, barred tail. Adults are blue-gray above with rufous barring below, and have red eyes. It is widely distributed across North America, breeding from southern Canada to Mexico, and can be found in woodlands and increasingly suburban areas. Its behavior is characterized by stealth hunting, flying with rapid wingbeats and short glides, using agility to pursue smaller birds through dense vegetation. No subspecies are recognised. 2.5 Flash (Edited) Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1) Fun fact: A Cooper's Hawk's eye colour is a good indicator of age! Juveniles have bright yellow eyes, which slowly change to yellow-orange, and eventually to a deep red in fully mature adults. 📷: Photo by Malibuskiboats via Pixabay https://pixabay.com/photos/coopers-hawk-bird-raptor-hawk-5827147/ JEAJ

Immature Cooper's hawk. #Cooper'sHawk #AsturCooperii #Hawk #BirdOfPrey #Immature #Bird #Animal #Nature #Photography #Monona #Wisconsin
A young Cooper's hawk on a large tree limb. The limb covers up the lower right quarter of the photo. Behind the haw are leaves and blurred green from other trees. The hawk has a white breast with brown streaking from its neck down. Its wings are brown, as is the top of its head. A patch of white extends from the neck up to just in front of the hawk's yellow eye. It is looking over its shoulder to the right, possibly eying something on the ground.
