Good morning, everyone.
Wanted to let everyone know that there is a hawk (assuming a cooper’s hawk)
that has been swooping around since Monday. We’ve seen evidence of it raiding
blue jay nests, mourning dove nests (broken eggs), and we think the suspicious
squirrel death we had was also at its hand. The birds were REALLY quiet last
night and this morning feels equally quiet in our usual bird-filled backyard.
You can catch it swooping around in the late afternoon (5-7). I think they feed
mostly on small birds.
We’re keeping an eye out for our family of owls until it clears the area.
