My Cooper's Hawks (both male and female) have loosely defended their nesting territory all winter near my house. They have let a Sharp-shinned Hawk hunt my yard periodically and have tolerated a Red-tailed Hawk low overhead on at least two occasions.
Today the male was doing a beautiful display flight over my house. Spring is near!
