Greetings from Tucson -- These pictures were taken through the glass door on an unusually cold day in February. The bird puffed up its feathers briefly, probably in an effort to keep warm. It's not cold here now. Have a good day!
Wonderful ! You are so lucky to have one sitting so nicely so you were able to get some great photos. The one who has been around my home is usually just a flash of feather as it zooms by my window as he picks up lunch and is munching his way through my very unwanted critter population. I love him !
Great shots, especially that last one. Glass doors and windows do make great blinds, I shoot through them often. A coopers hawk swooped through our yard today but to fast for a shot.

LOL great capture of the fluffed feathers! :-)
What great photos, Diane! You must have a monster lens or was it really that close?
Tracy, it was pretty close, about 15 feet away.
Enjoyable pics!
WOW! We have Coopers Hawks here, but I've never seen one close enough to get a good photo.
I LOVE that last one with his feathers all fluffed up - what a wonderful blessing to be visited by this beauty!

What a nice last picture! I don't think I would like to be too close.
Thanks for greeting in an Eagle way.

That's a pretty hawk. Glad to see these hawk survive well in the wild there.

Very beautiful photos!
What an awesome opportunity. Aren't they such noble looking creatures?
What photos, Diane! Awesome - er, ditto Magpie's comment!
The hawk looks so imperial and all-knowing sitting on that branch. Maybe he was looking for prey.
How cool that you can look out your door and see something that beautiful. Thanks for sharing these photos, Diane!
Very lovely!
Wow..what great shots, Diane! The hawk looks amazingly close, and so pretty!

Beautiful bird!
Beautiful pictures of the hawk, Diane. He looks like he is looking for some dinner!!!! Hope the Mourning Doves are all hidden!!!!! ha

We had a hawk circling over the yard last week, so the girls wouldn't put the bunny or guinea pigs out. :) I guess that's a wise choice.
Beautiful bird you saw here!
Really beautiful captures!
I agree with Lindy...
Very beautiful specimen! You know me as Jeannette St.G. at my "Mysteries" blog, but I started this new one, as Emille! Have a great rest of the week:)
I agree with these comments...
