I had seen them passing through the yard sporadically before and after then, but I really became interested in them at that time. I kept waiting for another prolonged, intense encounter with one of these beautiful and impressive birds. A pair was known through the summer to have set up housekeeping at the arroyo at the end of the street, so I thought that sooner or later a young one might appear.<\/p>\n<p>You can&#8217;t plan these things. This afternoon I was rushing around, trying to get some place on time. I had everything ready to go, and glanced out. Well, you can&#8217;t just ignore these wonderful things &#8211; any wonderful things &#8211; when they drop in, no matter how unexpected at the time. I hurriedly changed lenses, and made a few images.<\/p>\n<p>I expect &#8211; perhaps I should say hope &#8211; to see more of this bird in the coming months.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fcbkbttn_buttons_block\" id=\"fcbkbttn_left\"><div class=\"fcbkbttn_like fcbkbttn_large_button\"><fb:like href=\"http:\/\/susanbgraham.com\/blog\/2015\/09\/13\/coopers-hawk-2\/\" action=\"like\" colorscheme=\"light\" layout=\"button_count\"  size=\"large\"><\/fb:like><\/div><div class=\"fb-share-button fcbkbttn_large_button \" data-href=\"http:\/\/susanbgraham.com\/blog\/2015\/09\/13\/coopers-hawk-2\/\" data-type=\"button_count\" data-size=\"large\"><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Correction 10\/08\/2015: This is a Sharp Shinned Hawk and Not a Cooper&#8217;s Hawk!
