i am a falconer and i have a male cooper's hawk.they are doing this voice when they are hungry and imprinted to humans.not a wild one.sometimes falconers trap them or take them from the nest,train them-use them for falconry and after years they let them free
@@kwpp7 it's a very misunderstood practice, and I didn't fully understand it at first, but it's actually very beneficial to conservation of the species. there was a great documentary about it on Nature - ruclips.net/video/eCcJP8D_mNw/видео.html
I think Nektarios nailed it a couple years ago when he suggested it was an imprinted bird that was released. The calls it's making are very similar to the begging calls the young make when they're hungry. I hope it didn't starve to death waiting for someone to feed it.
Yes, it acts way too interested in the humans. Raptors in general are not much afraid of humans, but they aren't normally interested in humans, either.
@@SeanDiego Thank you for caring! Cooper's hawks eat mainly small birds such as house sparrows, jays, collared doves, starlings and quail in the wild, along with the occasional small rodent like mice, rats and chipmunks but the larger females sometimes catch cottontails, crows, smaller ducks, etc. If you encounter a raptor in obvious distress, best advice is to call the nearest animal rescue group for assistance. State fish and wildlife departments sometimes don't give a shit whether the raptor dies or not. Feeding a starving hawk at home is not recommended as the bird is often too weak to process the meal and will often die. Giving water is often a death sentence as well. Experienced raptor rehabbers will feed and hydrate the bird intravenously until it's able to feed and drink orally.
@@SeanDiego They're fed a balanced diet comparable to what they would eat in the wild, such as whole frozen/thawed farm raised quail, chicks, rats/mice. Feeding captive raptors wild caught animals is usually frowned upon due to the potential for secondary poisoning from ingesting lead and/or rodenticides and other toxins. Sounds a bit counter-intuitive for sure, but the concern is valid and it gives you an idea of some of the manmade risks that raptors face in the wild.
I think that's pretty cool that Cooper's Hawk can hang around the window like that. Its not a 100% wild Cooper's Hawk, but a falconry bird that was trained then released. Most of the time, these hawks are weak or injured. They are cared for until they are strong enough to return to the wild again.
Yup....that's a Cooper's Hawk alright. We've got a few of these lovely little raptors round our neighborhood and even if you don't always see them you can recognize that call straight away.
I was thinking it was a sharp shinned hawk. Tough to tell the difference between them at Cooper's hawks, but definitely one of the two. It was probably so bright outside that all it was seeing in the glass was its own reflection....
The red eyes and slate colored back are the markings of an adult coopers. The juveniles have light yellow or buff colored eyes and brown and white plumage. Awesome little birds. I'm releasing a rehabbed coopers hawk today.
Judging by his small size and red eyes, he was a juvenile, probably a fledging that was just learning to hunt. I have one behind my house. When he was young like that he came right up to my window also. Now however, he still hunts in my backyard, but not when he knows I'm around. Good video!
I know it's quite probable that this is a released. From a falconry project but seriously who turns out of bird like that and then set it free to be completely dysfunctional it's not right if you're going to train a bird in the practice a falconry you must rehabilitate the bird to living in the wild or provided a place to live ad infinitum for the duration of its life. You can leave its cage open and just keep offering food and not tether of the bird
Actually, it's a Coopers Hawk. The shoulders are not red, but the eyes are, meaning it is an accipiter. Its dark cap means that it is not the cousin of a Cooper's (The Sharp-shinned).
so much for humans being in the way of wildlife living, contrary to over zealous enviromentalists animals and people can coexist, they get used to us as we do them,. the area around here is full of coopers hawks red shoulder hawks especailly at the large swamp lake we have up the street, one coopers flew right in front of me as I sat in my chair. doesn't seem to mind me there at all. we have tons of birds, squirrels chipmunks bats, ducks of every kind, even saw an osprey by the home depot.
If you’re in Michigan you hear them a lot someone’s breeding them and they’re still used to being domesticated probably for squirrels im actually hearing them annoying screams now
I think it's hungry but it's so tame! UNheard of! I'v seen otherwise cooper hawks acting unafraid generally of humans but extremely rare like a robin say but this? Did some falconer let his hawk go?
I'm not sure, but a lot of the other commenters think this was a release hawk. He came by for a year or two, maybe about twice a month, sometimes several times a week. Haven't seen him for a while, now. He was always very brazen about coming to the window and scolding us as we went about our workday, it was always enjoyable to see him!
You can tell the difference between a Cooper's and a Sharp Shinned by the crown of the head. This bird has a very good dark head- meaning that it is a Coops. A Sharp Shinned would have a lighter cap/
I've seen a Cooper's a couple of times in my yard. I don't know they're there until they flash out from one of my trees. Kinda bizarre how this one came right up to the window. The one's that live around here are shy.
I see this a little different than everybody else. I don't think it's a falconer's bird at all, I think it hit the window and it's kind of got his bell rung. As far as the screaming, it might see its reflection in the glass and think that mommy's going to feed it soon. The glass must be mirrored, because when the guy was moving his hand around the bird didn't even look at the hand. It just looked at its own reflection in the glass. I could be wrong though. OSH :-)
You are correct. My mistake. Good job. I have a juvenile in my back yard now that is just learning to hunt. He missed an easy catch of a squirrel the other day. I'm sure he will catch on the more hungry he gets.
You should have called wildlife, these hawks don't come straight to humans like that if they are wild. Something wrong with it and anyway that one was just left the nest. So it's mommy would be teaching it how to hunt. So either it lost its mom or mom died.
@MomoHawk009 That's what I thought, I originally had it titled as a coopers hawk, but changed it when @fishjohnburg suggested it was a red shouldered hawk
Sound and. Looks like a ted shouldered hAwk. Over gotten them mixed up myself. We apparently have both species living in the woods adjacent to our yard, so wwe see lots of hawks in our yard.
If you arre interested in seeing where I was publicallly called out for my ignorance, you can go to my Instagram page(plus see some amazing artwork and porous)
Stop spraying us I agree with your statement whole heartedly it's a youngster that doesn't know better the Cooper's Hawks that hunt my pigeons keep their distance from humans

That seems cruel. How sad.
@@kwpp7 its not cruel, what is it. 80% of hawks die before they get to adult? its giving them another chance by being their hunting buddy

I think you are dead-on. I'm a former rehabber (for 20 years) and a member of NAFA, and the first thing I thought was "That's an imprint bird."
@@victoriavictrix8677 I thought imprints we're considered non releaseabe?

What do you feed them in case I ever come across an imprint

@@markmoore4088 thank you! So how do raptor rehabbers feed them when they are healthy?

Hungry imprinted and injured...the way he is making his way along the window... probably released falconry bird as it is an adult
how can those people in the room be having a normal conversation while this cooper's hawk is hanging out inches away from them

I'm listening to this on my mega box and every squirrel in my backyard is standing still 😂😂😂

What a great shot!
Hawk is very concerned about that ask, he thinks the turnaround is unreasonable.
Definitely a Cooper's.
He wants in. Why don't y'all let him in?
"Let me in dude! Im hungry...jeeze..a little help around here"....good mouser...you wont need a cat or pigeon control.
Judging by his small size and red eyes, he was a juvenile, probably a fledging that was just learning to hunt. I have one behind my house. When he was young like that he came right up to my window also. Now however, he still hunts in my backyard, but not when he knows I'm around. Good video!
red eyes, gray back, and horizontal chest barring indicate an adult
Such beautiful birds. Very Majestic..

Male, adult, trained and released raptor. :)
That's adorable !!!
gee looks a lot like a Sharp shinned hawk
if its mature it is, coopers have red eyes
It isn't a Sharp-shinned you can tell by the back of head it has a cap look, whereas sharpies dont have that contrast on neck.
No, that is a definate Cooper's Hawk.
If you’re in Michigan you hear them a lot someone’s breeding them and they’re still used to being domesticated probably for squirrels im actually hearing them annoying screams now
AWESOME!!!! what a beauty!
gorgeous visitor!
Here cames the badboy 😅
Very nice video +1thank you👌👌👍👍
Very young Cooper's Hawk
Nope very adult Male Coopers. Young ones have different plumage and yellow eyes.
it sees its reflection in the window and thinks its a rival Cooper's Hawk
He's admiring the coin collection.
Yeah that young hawk was pretty much Hungry
I think it's hungry but it's so tame! UNheard of! I'v seen otherwise cooper hawks acting unafraid generally of humans but extremely rare like a robin say but this? Did some falconer let his hawk go?

@Me dicen Lola No, we never fed him, he would just come by on his own.
Oh wow - how cool is this? Came right up to the window and all!
Love those eyes
Yeah I'm not buying that it's imprinted on humans as some of the comments suggest. You hear this call all the time.
I thought it limped a little.. injured? What an amazing sight to see that up close, and it showed no fear. It's unusual that it didn't fly off.
You can tell the difference between a Cooper's and a Sharp Shinned by the crown of the head. This bird has a very good dark head- meaning that it is a Coops. A Sharp Shinned would have a lighter cap/
nice shot i tell you, at first i thought it was a sharpie
It wants to come in and hang out for a while!
Don't listen to that guy. It is a coopers hawk, you can tell by the red eyes, the size, the coloration, the call, and the foot size.
I've seen a Cooper's a couple of times in my yard. I don't know they're there until they flash out from one of my trees. Kinda bizarre how this one came right up to the window. The one's that live around here are shy.

Who's a good bird? Who's a good bird??
He's hungry =)
You are correct. My mistake. Good job. I have a juvenile in my back yard now that is just learning to hunt. He missed an easy catch of a squirrel the other day. I'm sure he will catch on the more hungry he gets.
We have one in our yard. He kills a lot. So rad!
probably has a nest nearby.
So cute
he say hey mister bring me meet
1:02 dramatic look.I almost peed on myself for laughing
Its cute
Was his wing hurt or something
@linkman2010 Actually, it should be afraid of humans. No fear of humans can doom this bird.
You should have called wildlife, these hawks don't come straight to humans like that if they are wild. Something wrong with it and anyway that one was just left the nest. So it's mommy would be teaching it how to hunt. So either it lost its mom or mom died.
Give him some food , man, What the bird gotta do around here to get fed???:):)
@MomoHawk009 That's what I thought, I originally had it titled as a coopers hawk, but changed it when @fishjohnburg suggested it was a red shouldered hawk

My Instagram address e @Veronika_.Sissorhands (which is a play on the art I do)I cut up paper, such as junk mail and catalogs to my art.
Spuds and looks a lot like a coopers hawik. Our yarrd is adjacent to a little patch of trees, so we get lots of hawks and other birds in our yard.
Beautiful bird
Stop spraying us I agree with your statement whole heartedly it's a youngster that doesn't know better the Cooper's Hawks that hunt my pigeons keep their distance from humans
Steve Connor it is an adult Male Coopers Hawk 100%
It's youngster it doesn't know better
That's a red shouldered hawk.
No its not
your country can you get wild bird ?
awww omg
Found one of these in a tree eating a small bird or something. Check out the video on my channel
you shouldn't have recieved negative votes for that. This is the last straw.
a juvenile, probably
It's an adult.
+mark moore Nope its a Juvenile
Awesome Clips No. It's definitely an adult.
+mark moore Adults have Greg on their chest and juveniles have dots on their chest. Plus adults don't make that noise.
Awesome Clips Must be hard to breathe with Greg on their chest! It's definitely in adult plumage. Look it up.
