As I was walking out to check the birds I watched a Cooper's snatch a robin, the thing came out of nowhere and plucked the robin out of the grass just feet away from me, leaving only a pile of grey feathers.
The good news is that there's an egg now!

Congrats! And man, I like hawks, but coppers are my least favorite. I've lost 2 birds to them they are soooo bold.
