My Senior Advisor on Winged, Bipedal, Endothermic, Egg-laying Vertebrate Affairs, informs me that the bird I photographed at the Ponds yesterday, is an Immature Cooper's Hawk. Now you know.

I'm an old guy, living near San Francisco. I was born in Austria and grew up in Shanghai. Long-distance running used to be my passion. Now it's digital photography and hiking. When people ask me what I like to take pictures of, my answer is "what I see". I follow world-events and am of a rather liberal stripe. To top it all off, I'm a vegetarian.I'm an extrovert and don't take life terribly seriously.

hate to nit pick, but this is not an immature cooper's hawk. it is a gray morph, northern harrier. the white rump patch and overall gray color gives it away. an immature coopers will have a streaked breast, and an overall brown color. cool photo though!!!
