This splendid Cooper's Hawk is a regular visitor to our backyard where it hunts for small birds at the feeders.   Its bird-of-choice for a hearty meal is a plump Mourning Dove.  It's not successful on every attempt but is successful enough, often enough, to maintain its impressive size and healthy appearance, as seen above.
Please comment if you wish.
