This is a different tree in the Rookery, and thus
likely a different squirrel. I have known this one to set up nesting for years in this tree.
And likely a different Hawk, but one can never tell :)
The results still end up the same.

Very nice images.
That squirrel is flirting with disaster.
A cool song but a bad idea.

That's an interesting sequence of a squirrel and hawk. I had a mother Blue Jay bird dive on behind my head. When I got too close to her home nest. And I'm much larger than any hawk. I just don't have talons like a hawk.

Pretty ballsy squirrel. Is that an immature hawk? I'm guess if it was an adult and it was hungry this might have been a different story.

i wouldn't be surprised if it was immature. but given their positions he would have had a hard time of it to be on the offensive.

The hawk was just scouting the area. I dont think he had much leverage, but this morning I shot just the opposite. a Hawk actually hunting a squirrel. he went right, she went left, and back again. squirrel got away

That's just Squirrely behavior and the Hawk decided to be elsewhere as a result this unnatural act by an obviously wacky rodent......clearly suicidal !!!
