Coopers Hawk

Accipiter Cooperii

Description:

Crow-sized hawk with brick red bars on his chest. Back is a dark grey and the tail is long and has three stripes.

Habitat:

Open gravel lot, at the tree line.

Notes:

Looking for snakes at dusk, I turn around and look up and see a large bird fly over me and a smaller songbird chasing it. So I run to where they flew over to and look up in the tree and there he was.
