Duck! (Eudocimus albus, Accipiter cooperii)

Not the species but the action ;)

I had focused on this White Ibis when a young Cooper's Hawk made a pass. It tried several times after on a number of the ibises, but unsuccessfully as far as I know.

Goodness!!! Well captured that Niels.

Strange, I would have thought an Ibis was too large for a hawk? But as I've never seen either, what do I know LOL!

Excellent work my friend.

Especially with the photobomb, that is a great shot, Niels.
