Snow day! Yesterday was my first in three years. The morning was rough enough that I didn’t feel I should venture out. I was going stir crazy in the afternoon though and conditions seemed to be improving so I went for a quick drive.
The critters seemed to be hunkered down in the storm as I wasn’t having much luck. I did, however, come across this cool Cooper’s hawk as it waited out the storm. While these guys are actually quite common, they aren’t commonly seen, preferring to stay out of sight. Getting a chance to photograph one of them as a result is always kind of fun for me.
