We have a neighborhood Cooper’s hawk. The homeowner he chooses gets to save money on seed as long as he hangs around. He had an injured wing a few days ago and was a pedestrian for a day, but he recovered and is on the prowl again. My wife thinks he hit a wing on a feeder while attacking a songbird.
