Wild Bird Wednesday - Hawk

As we drove along I saw a hawk on a telephone wire - and a small bird beside it.  The little bird took off and began harassing the hawk - it was amazing to watch.

  4. Birds can be brave and almost foolhardy when it comes to protecting their young - I suspec t there is a nest somewhere nearby.

  5. This is a common occurrence and most hawks are used to the harassment of smaller birds ... but I have seen a Red Tail turn and snatch a bird. Question, was he just fed up or was he hungry? Hard to say ... nature can be a mystery.

  6. Looks like you are more adept than I at catching birds in flight.
