We had another visit from a feasting bird of prey today. He was on the front lawn having a tartare of Mourning Dove. He stayed within 20 feet of me and then took the dove across the street to complete the deed in the shelter of an evergreen tree. I believe it was either a Cooper's or a Sharp Shinned Hawk.
COOPER'S HAWK
SHARP -SHINNED HAWK
Our chickens will be mostly under cover, but I had entertained the idea of using a small chicken tractor for garden gleaning and pest control, but am re-thinking the security options of this set up. Maybe
these aren't so over the top after all.
