The hawk is back!

The Cooper’s hawk is back outside my window! In the past week I have
seen it there twice. Right now it is eating another pigeon it has
killed. And of course, the squirrels are poking around nearby quite
obliviously. When I saw it earlier it was on that frigid day when
light snow was coming down. It just sat there, with flakes collecting
on its puffed-out feathers until it shook them off. Not even the
squirrels were out, it was so cold. Today it’s much warmer and the
hawk is apparently doing quite well for itself. Since it’s a regular
visitor I think it may be time for me to name it.
