Cooper’s Hawk In Patio Olive Tree — Image by kenne
I wandered lonely as a bird,
from the dust of dreams I arose.
The sigh of desolate heart I heard
emanate from the depth of woes.
The music of love within me didn’t die,
floating in its cadence I soared in the sky.

Juvenile Cooper’s Hawk On A Hot Summer Day 4 comments
The summer heat helps bring a lot of birds to our patio water fountain, including this juvenile cooper’s hawk.
He/she has spent much time in the olive tree, which looks down on the fountain and bird feeders.
They haven’t learned yet that other birds know they are there, so waiting will get he/she nowhere.

Cooper’s Hawk in Mesquite Tree — Painting by kenne
“For those of us who portray wildlife . . . our decision to persist in our quest for excellence is almost always based
on a love affair,
a fascination with the creatures of our planet, and a need to share this feeling the best way we know how.”

I have a little knowledge of this bird,
never as much as an ornithologist.
Maybe it’s because I don’t have
the right personality or something,
being concerned fundamentally
with the “oughts” of life from
a philosophical point of view,
if you know what I mean.

A 4th 0f July Bath — Photo Essay 6 comments
On this 4th of July morning, I observed a Cooper’s Hawk bathing in our patio fountain.
Many birds drink from the fountain and occasionally will splash water on themselves.
However, this morning was the first time I witnessed a hawk bathing in the water.

A Visitor On The Patio (Immature Cooper’s Hawk) — Images by kenne
This immature Cooper’s Hawk perched on one of our patio chairs not far from the bird feeder frequented by doves for about one minute this morning. A mature hawk would have been up in the olive tree near the feeder. Even then, that doesn’t work as well as swooping from over the rooftop. They will learn. These images were taken through the patio door, which given the time of day the doors become a mirror.
