I have mentioned that Wy-lee, the Roadrunner with droopy wing that essentially lived in our garden this summer, disappeared about the time the Cooper’s Hawk arrived, inferring that Cooper’s Hawk ate Wy-lee. We don’t know, but Wy-lee has been replaced by another Roadrunner, though not near as tame. In any case, the Cooper’s Hawk, a female I believe, has taken center stage on an evening when we are sprinkling the lawn, after a daytime high of 103°.
