That was traumatic. Sauvignon blanc and salad before dinner. I'll check in with Isaac later on the real thread for this week.

And I foolishly scheduled Physical Therapy every Tuesday and Thursday at 3. I have learned that they often have no one right before me, so I go early.

It probably wasn't a Cooper's hawk based on the appearance as per https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Coopers_Hawk/idBob cruise director wrote: ↑Sat Jul 09, 2022 8:36 pmMost likely a Cooper's hawk based on your description. And you are right, how agile and quick they are.FKelly wrote: ↑Sat Jul 09, 2022 4:40 pm
Thanks for posting the nice photos of barred owls. A week ago, our boot camp workout was interrupted by a large hawk or eagle catching a very surprised sparrow under the branches of a tree about 15 feet away. For such a large bird, it's surprisingly agile. It happened so fast no one was able to get a photo.
It appeared to be a solid bronze in color with perhaps some variation front versus back. It made a tight loop around the tree trunk and then came to a stop in midair at about the time of intercept.
