Cooper's Hawk
East Park Reservoir, Philadelphia PA. After being closed off for several decades, the reservoir was open for a few hours to the public today to preview the area where an educational center will be constructed later this year. There were of course plenty of birds, including this young Cooper's hawk. The overcast skies were unfortunate from a photography perspective, but I think this is actually my first passable shot of a Cooper's in flight.
