Cooper's Hawk Courtship Display Susan Brandt Graham

Bird watchers, nature lovers, animal behaviorists, and anyone interested in the world around them will be fascinated by a rarely photographed in-the-trees courtship display by a young male Cooper's hawk. Contains 32 images of a young male Cooper's hawk putting on quite a show. Was he attracted to the object of this display, or merely showing deference, as young male Cooper's hawks often do to the significantly larger females of the species, or to a larger creature with a much larger "beak," a long camera lens? You, the reader, decide... This photographer was grateful for the serendipitous display.
