Robins 1 -- Red Hawk 0
Jul 14, 2020 20:41:18 #
We have a family of Red Hawks near us and I've had a great time trying to catch them in flight in just the right light but without a ton of success. The other morning though, the robins were really kicking up a fuss. When I went out and looked, I found that one of the hawks was sitting in the top of a big pine tree on the edge of our yard. All around him were robins, clearly displeased with him. I didn't realize it but it's obviously a nesting tree.
Eventually he must have decided that they weren't worth the trouble and flew home. About a dozen robins chased him.

Thanks! I am too impatient to really be a birder but I got lucky this time!
