Out in front shoveling this morning when my 3 yard crows suddenly went nuts; vocalizing mucho. Whatever it was, they weren't going near it, but stayed in the top of our tallest tree. It took me a bit to locate the source of their displeasure. At first, with binos, I thought a very large juvenile Coopers; but then decided to drag the scope out in the snow where I discerned a clear, wide whitish stripe over the eye. The stripe is paler than the supercilium of an adult. The breast streaking is very similar to that of the juvenile Coopers however. This is my first Yard juv. GOSHAWK. Steve FastBrooktondale --
