Actually, no, that bird is a Harris's Hawk. Cooper's Hawk does not have the rusty-colored wings.

Opps yes, thats what I meant. Coopers got stuck in my head. Sorry about that. Yes it is a harris.

Nice shot. The Harris Hawks are (I think) the only raptors that hunt in packs.

Great capture with excellent details and sharpness. Can you tell me what lens you used?

Thanks folks.
This was hard to do. I only got one shot. I thought I had the camera on continuous mode, but.....it wasn't.
Lesson learned.
