Cooper's Hawk, <em>Accipiter cooperii</em>, is a medium-sized member of the family Accipitridae (Hawks, Eagles & Kites), well known across North America for its skilled pursuit of birds through wooded landscapes. This species inhabits forest environments and is often associated with both mature woodland and suburban areas with tree cover. Detailed plumage and behavioral descriptions of this species are limited in the available literature beyond nesting data. Cooper's Hawk is assessed as Least Concern. Its nest is a platform structure (type PL), with incubation periods of approximately 30 to 34 days and fledging occurring between 27 and 30 days post-hatching. Typical clutches contain 3 to 6 eggs. Specific diet, vocal, and population trend data are not included in the available records.
