Hawk with a headache, Chapter 3 -mended
Mar 4, 2021 18:29:08 #
This is the story of the Juvi Coopers Hawk that flew into out glass deck railing the afternoon of 2/22. I'll edit in links to chapters 1 & 2 after posting this final installment.
For a quick recap. When I gently picked the Hawk up from the deck I was sure he was dead. Spread eagle on his back, wet, limp, seemingly lifeless. After gently bringing it in the house his eye lid began to flutter. We wrapped him in a warm dry towel and within about 5 minutes he regained consciousness. Very shortly thereafter I set him on his feet on the patio.
