I didn’t have my camera, but managed the following video using my phone.<br><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><div><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/ljcouple/54827765207/in/dateposted/">https://www.flickr.com/photos/ljcouple/54827765207/in/dateposted/</a></div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Seemed like strange behavior for a Cooper’s Hawk.

I really regretted leaving my camera at home, but again used my phone to take the following photo.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><div><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/ljcouple/54828870828/in/photostream/">https://www.flickr.com/photos/ljcouple/54828870828/in/photostream/</a></div><br></div><div dir="auto">During the two hours that we were with our granddaughters we also had a Great Blue Heron fly by as did a Belted Kingfisher.
