Cooper's hawks were perched in the live oak at station 8, 5. Two of the
animals looked like juveniles (smaller, more white feathers on body), but it
needed binoculars to tell for sure. They weren't bothered by me in any
noticeable fashion. Anyway, summary of captures (see grid data sheets
for complete account).
