Observation details
Combing thicket by waters edge. It saw me before I saw it and I startled it it ran about 10 feet away from me stopped and we just watched each other for about 10 minutes. Certainly long enough for me to get a few good pictures. Then out of nowhere a Cooper's Hawk came diving down in the exactly area the Sora was in. Luckily he was underneath some thick branches so it was a failed attempt by the Hawk if it was in fact going after the Sora. Absolutely surreal experience. BTW I didn't even know what a Sora was at the time. Had to identify it in my Sibley Book along with Merlin Photo ID to be 100%
