adult, outside normal range
St. Isidore - I found this bird today feeding along a roadside near a forest with a flock of "regular" Juncos. This "Oregon" type individual is a western subspecies which is rare in the east. I hadn't seen one for decades. This is an adult male.

Ingleside - This near adult bird flew low to check me out before continuing on its patrol of the St. Lawrence. It's giving me the old 'eagle eye.' The bird was very close. This image is not cropped.

While out in the field near Saint Clet, Quebec, much to our surprise a Merlin came up and landed right beside us on a small post. This was only minutes after seeing a Harrier in the same location.

Shortly after spotting a Merlin, this Snowy Owl glided over and may have attempted to take the prey of the Merlin which was down on the ground in the field. Seen near Saint Clet, Quebec.

I'm fairly sure this is a Cooper's Hawk but please feel free to discuss all field marks. From the observations we made today, it was near Crow-sized (perhaps 1-2cm smaller), had fine streaking, and a fairly large head.
