Over the past four years we've had a pair of Coopers Hawks nest in the woods off the back yard. This past Fall\Winter the nest was blown down by high winds. I noticed this morning that a pair of Crows are now building a nest in a different tree from where the Coopers had their nest. About an hour later I then spotted one of the adult Coopers looking to break off branches for a nest. Not sure what tree they will choose. It will be interesting to see if they share the same wood lot or if one will claim the territory. Let the battle begin.
