Animal of the Week: Cooper's Hawk

It's a new week which means a new Animal of the Week! This week, naturalist Rand is talking to us about Cooper's Hawks and how to identify them. This animal of the week is extra special because we have a pair of Cooper's Hawks nesting right at Baltimore Woods. Next time your at The Woods keep your eyes out for these very well camouflaged residents gathering materials for their nest!

I was trying to figure out what bird is perched in my neighbors tree. Thank you! It’s a female Cooper’s hawk

I have a new batch of Cooper hawk baby's like 10 steps out of the door. (Live beside nature sanctuary) love watching them grow and learn together
