In Flight Nothing quite as beautiful as a Cooper Hawk in full flight. The species finder does not indicate there is such a bird but it is quite common here in New Hampshire. Also called a Chicken Hawk. Accipiter cooperii,Coopers Hawk,In Flight Click/tap to enlarge

Cooper's hawk is a medium-sized hawk native to the North American continent and found from southern Canada to Mexico. This species is a member of the genus "Accipiter", sometimes referred to as true hawks, which are famously agile, relatively small hawks common to wooded habitats around the world and also the most diverse of all diurnal raptor genera.
