It’s actually a she, I monitor this nest for the state , the good thing about it is it’s right next to a road and I can sit in my car and take pictures of her when she sits on a tree that’s on the road. She tolerates me,lol, last year she layed  eggs on the 15th of March,this year she doesn’t seem to be in a hurry, hoping she lays soon and doesn’t decide to skip a year.

Mojave Desert. The Cooper's Hawk was back again this morning. Still couldn't get very close, this from about 75ft.

The word vegetarian actually comes from a Native American word which translates roughly to not a very good hunter! ?

Just because you not a good hunter didn't mean you had to eat poor old uncle Gorge.(He had rheumatism and couldn't run very fast you know)

I love this--the pattern of the bird juxtaposed on the pattern of the fence.  Wow!
