Yesterday I watched a Cooper Hawk fledgling walk along the peak of a garage roof and attempt to perch on a telephone wire. He was quite good at walking, but his feet are too big to get a good grip on a thin wire, especially one that's swinging under his weight. Eventually he went back to the tree where it sounded like there was a second baby. I'm pretty sure he fledged yesterday; he still has quite a bit of fluffy white feathers around his face and forehead and very short tail feathers.
