If the number of calls and questions I have received in the last couple
of years about "how do I stop the hawks from taking the birds at my bird
feeders" is any indication of Cooper Hawk numbers then the Cooper Hawk
population is doing just fine.

I also have Coopers nesting across the road from me so my feeders are
targeted daily.

My experience is pretty much the opposite, Bob. I've been seeing Coops in a
lot of different places. We even had a flyover at Wyalusing while we were
trying to spot the Yellow-throated Warbler over our heads. There's a nest
just down the street from my house, so I hear them in the neighborhood quite
a bit, and find piles of feathers in my yard pretty regularly. They've
nested in the immediate area for several years, but this was the first time
I've been able to confirm it.

Subject: [wisb] Cooper's Hawks in decline?
Has anybody else noticed the drop in Cooper's Hawks in the last couple of
years? I never used to be able to watch the birds in our yard without
seeing a hawk at least a couple of times a week. I haven't seen one in our
yard all year. FYI: Our yard is full of bird feeders, approximately 30
right now and there are always birds here.
