Just 10 minutes down the road from you, we have a Cooper's Hawk who hangs out in our neighborhood.
S/he is a particular fan of shopping for lunch at our bird feeders (*sigh*), so has spent some time sitting on the bushes surrounding our enclosed porch. Despite the potential loss of our little feathered freeloaders, it's really cool to have a hawk less than 10 feet from the kitchen window on occasion. We too cheer on anybody who'll reduce our bunny population.
Also a raptor fan...
