We saw a similar hawk last week in our backyard. It is surprising that this Cooper’s hawk did not attack the squirrel right below him (or her.) It was morning, time for breakfast. We used to live in the woods,and we once saw a hawk dive down and grab a squirrel. It then flew up and dropped the squirrel. then it returned to take the bloody animal away.
