Where other than Kentucky could one expect to find chickens residing in
the suburban yard of a sophistocated businessman in the state's second
largest metropolitan area ... :o)

Subject: [birdky] COOPER'S HAWKS
April 21, 2009: I had a pair of immature Cooper's Hawks in and about the
yard last night. They chased each other high and low, in and out, with
lots of vocals. I assume their antics were courtship, but they were not
mature birds. How long does it take for them to get adult plumage and to
mate?
My chickens were flattened to the ground during their presence. I doubt
a Cooper's would take an adult chicken, but the Red-tailed that was
eyeing them over the weekend most certainly had food on her mind.
