While riding as a passenger in a car today, I saw a male Cooper's Hawk take a pigeon out of a fairly large flock of pigeons around 12:20 PM today near the intersection of Beltway 8 East near the Almeda Road exit. It appeared to be having problems holding onto the pigeon, as it must have weighed more than the hawk did! But it did for as long as I could see it. Mira M.
