Frequent Visitor

I get a lot of Cooper's hawks in my yard, possibly due to the large number of doves that visit my feeders. I never get tired of the thrill of looking out my window to see this just a few feet away. Quite large so most likely a female. Beautiful in the late afternoon sunlight & shadows.
