This past week, the same day I photographed the Brown Creepers in my last post, I was making the trip home after work, when my good karma finally paid off. I was starting to change lanes to turn when I saw this on the roadside. [singlepic id=1093 w=450] I often have trouble distinguishing a Cooper's Hawk from a Sharp-shinned without putting some work into it, but this one was large enough to remove any doubt. This was a Cooper's and likely a female since they are larger than males. And this was

was until I realize “today is deer hunting day!” I suddenly jump for joy until my dad tells me to be quieter because everyone is asleep. Whoops… I think to myself as I start layering up on clothes. My dad warned me yesterday that it would be cold which I realized but didn't know until I stepped outside. Once I get back in the house I grab a package of fruit snacks and powerade and head to the truck. On the way there I ask, “do you think were going to get a deer?” He replies “ I hope so.” Then

I knew then that some deer in the area would know we were there. I climbed in my tree stand and I saw a doe in the corn field that I was sitting on. I ranged the deer with my range
