Subject: [Tweeters] Banded Hawk (Cooper's?) in Centralia

> Hi, Tweets,
> We had a visitor to our feeder area this afternoon, a banded hawk that
> I am pretty sure was a Cooper's. It was quite large compared to the
> Sharpies we usually see. It's right leg had a silver metallic band
> and its left leg was retracted and appeared to be injured.
>
> Our local For Heaven's Sake Animal Rescue and Rehab center told me
> that they never band their birds but it could have escaped from a
> falconer. If anyone has information on why a hawk would be banded or
> if you want to see a photo contact me.
