Need an ID for this hawk I was unable to snap a photo of. Written details are what stood out most. My best guess is some phase of Red-tail I am not yet familiar with.
Thanks for taking a look.

Cooper's Hawk (Accipiter cooperii)Observer
anhingasDescription
Vocalized. I will understand this staying ungraded though. Must have been in our Umbrella Tree; I came out onto our back patio slab and as I was walking towards the bottlebrush it skimmed so close over my head I felt the wind. Unfortunately too dark out for clearer photos but it was kind enough to call for a few seconds before darting into the island and alarming the catbirds.

Peters's Rock Agama (Agama picticauda)Observer
anhingasDescription
Small population. Circle encompasses most of the area we've spotted them. I do think there's a good possibility that these could be eradicated from this location though.
BE CAREFUL WHEN PARKING IN THIS PART OF THE LOT they can and will get in the wheel wells of your car. I truly believe this is one of the major ways they are spreading out.

Flew by very low but it was dark so camera didn't want to focus well. Heard this animal before it came into view.

Butterflies and Moths (Order Lepidoptera)Observer

CVS generated. Probably incorrect, not seeing any state observations? Really tiny larva like. 2, maybe 3 millimeters? Did not want to uncurl. These are the only photos that turned out.

Upsetting many local birds. Flushed my lifer Wilson's Snipe which I did not react well enough to photograph in time. Thankfully though the hawk stayed put and I DID manage a photo(poor).

This cheeky little scamp kept playing dead. It's also my 1600th observation!
I'm not an insect person so corrections are appreciated. It was so freaking small and my camera's macro mode is terrible. Hopefully there's enough detail present.
