Cooper’s hawks do not have to show: A flat head
An angular head
Hackles
Tawney cheeks
An eye which is placed forward in the head.
In San Diego on Sante Fe Street I observed a perched, mature Cooper’s, at close range, at eye level. This hawk had an all black head. This was a stunning observation. Just imagine a Spotted Towhee with a head three- times its normal size.
