Maura and Peter Briggs wonder if this is the same bird that GMGers have been seeing around town (captured on their deck)

    Excellent photos as usual. See you at the Giclee show.

  2. I saw one of those hawks literally tearing apart a sparrow on my deck and snacking on it, while I watched from 5 feet away. Maybe it’s the same one and he’s gotten onto the idea that birdfeeder = buffet?

    Excellent photos. Hope those lovely birds are not that hawk’s dinner…They do have to eat and I prefer that they eat mice instead :)

    This hawk is not the same as the red tail posted a few days ago. Although hard to identify accurately given that we can’t see the tail, and we don’t have any size comparison, I’m betting this hawk is an accipiter, likely a Cooper’s hawk or a sharp shinned hawk. They were formerly known as “bird hawks” because of their diets, so you are likely to see them near your feeder, feasting on its intended beneficiaries.
