Continuing with my "5" Star Photo series we get to the Sharp Shinned Hawk. The SSH is very similar to the Coopers Hawk, but slightly smaller. This makes positive identification sometimes difficult, especially with full size Sharp Shinned and younger Coopers.
This Sharp Shinned photo was taken at Whitewater Draw in Southern Arizona where 30 to 40,000 Sandhill Cranes winter. The area 'draws' lots of birds which means both Sharp Shinned and Coopers will be around.
