Here is a young Cooper's hawk that fits this category, although he was actually just adjusting his position after shaking the rain from his feathers. In fact, he stayed perched there for at least 20 minutes. I walked up to within 10 feet and then all around the post, clicking away and still he did not fly. I got more than 700 shots and would have taken more but it was raining and I was out without a coat. (It is warm here on the East Coast today.)
