Cooper’s Hawk.
Ahhh, a day without responsibilities. Well, work responsibilities, I mean—because I had a ton of chores to do. Which I did (Jack came, too). I also took a hike.
Southern exposure.
Not much at Beech Hill today except cold temperatures, a brisk wind, and nice sunny views. But afterward, on an errand in town, I happened to spot a Cooper’s Hawk on a utility line above busy Route 1 traffic. Snuck out to grab a photo, but it wouldn’t stick around as I tried to make my way to its sunny side.
Supposed to warm up tomorrow and maybe rain.
