Had a cooper's Hawk in the neighbours back yard just off of our deck tonight. It stayed for nearly an hour and was not fazed in the least by my noisy 1DX Mark II. This image taken at about 75 feet hand held at 840mm. Best viewed at full magnification.

Here is the local juvi coopers hawk. He got flushed from a fence post and didn't realize that I was standing behind the crab apple tree when he picked it to perch on. Only got off a few shots before he flushed again.
