peregrine falcon webcam (1 Viewer)

What a gorgeous photo! This isn't a peregrine though. I'm guessing it's a first year Cooper's hawk. What a stroke of luck you happened upon it with your camera ready!
 
Many of you likely know about the University of Alberta Peregrine Falcon webcam; see http://www.falconcam.med.ualberta.ca/. Walking thru the forested river valley adjacent to the university, I stumbled on the bird -- see photo.
