Outstanding Cooper’s Hawk photo. I used to see them darting around our LA neighborhood; very common Accipiter down there, the Sharp-Shinned much more abundant here.

Wondering what he has in his claws.

Judging from those little fingers I would guess a mole.

I took several photos of the Cooper’s hawk, and after examining its prey closely I guessed that it was a Norway rat, or maybe a mouse of some kind. The head is face-down, and you can see one of the ears fairly well, which do not protrude like that on a mole. The feet do look like a mole, but could easily be a rat’s (or mouse’s) as

Thanks for all the gorgeous photos! My favorite might be the Rudy-Crowned Kinglet. Not only is this a very cute, endearing little bird, but my parrot loves their song.

I’m so glad! I’d never seen a Ruby-Crowned Kinglet until I moved to West Seattle. This little sweetie visits my suet daily, so I feel very lucky!
