Observation details
I was off work this Friday. I returned home early from birdwatching as it was just ugly. Very hot, very humid, and poor air quality due to the nearby Cranston Fire. I went to go out and cool off in my pool, only to find myself trapped in my own home by two pushy Cooper's Hawks at my patio leading out to my pool. I had no idea how long they had been there but at around 2 hours after I first saw them, I had to finally chase them away. My other yard birds needed to get to the water and the feeders. See a few pictures attached. P.S These two are resident and I see them a lot, sometimes at the same time like this, and sometimes not.
