Hawks: Part II



The Cooper's Hawk is the most common hawk here at The Azure Gate Bed and Breakfast. We see one nearly every day -- often eating a dove or quail they just caught. In the warmer months we serve breakfast outside by the pool. And often a Cooper's Hawk will fly in and sit on (or in) one of our birds baths for 10-15 minutes giving guests a nice look.



Here is a Juvenile Cooper's Hawk sitting in one of our bird baths:


And here is an adult Cooper's Hawk sitting in another one of our bird baths:


And one eating a dove he just caught outside our office:
