Cooper's Hawk at Mill Creek, Carteret County, NC



Today, 7 July, Jack Fennell saw an adult Cooper's Hawk in his yard, near
Mill Creek community, Carteret County.  The hawk took a Blue Jay.  He had
seen evidence of bird kills in his yard for several days, and thought a hawk
had been responsible.  Perhaps Coopers are nesting in his vicinity.

Jack saw a Cooper's Hawk in his yard last summer as well, on 30 June.  That
bird took a nestling Purple Martin out of a nest box.
