Thanks. We have a pair that nests in the top of one of our pines. They share the nest with a pair of ravens. The Cooper's use the nest first, and when their young are out, the ravens use the nest. We also have a pair of kestrels that occupy a different tree. The leave feathers and droppings all over under the tree
