I saw the first dragonfly of the year this morning! then five minutes later, the first mosquito.

Summer is here!

That's a good size snake. Poor Confetti, he was so pretty

Confetti was a bantam

These predators are quite intelligent.

Thanks, that was a good article. We have Coopers hawks here, I've seen them a couple times, trying to snatch birds at my feeders. I read that they are good at flying through heavily wooded areas, dodging around the trees. Inspection of Coopers hawks shows evidence of healed bone fractures, from when they weren't as skillful at flying.
