Cooper's Hawk Vs Sharp Shinned Hawk Identification

Sharp-shinned Hawk Identification, All About Birds, Cornell Lab of Ornithology

A bird that’s also a bird watcher 😅. Sharp-shinned Hawks are incredible birds of prey. Their acute eyesight helps them see birds in the bush—a burst of wingbeats and an acrobatic maneuver is how they get their “bird-in-the-hand” (talon). Lucky to get this gal! Wish her well on her migratory voyage. All birds captured, banded, and safely released for conservation research with required permits. #hawk #sharpshinnedhawk #raptor #bird #wildlife #berkshires #first | Berkshire Bird Observatory
