Wow, I remember toy surprises in Cracker Jacks and breakfast cereal boxes back when I was a kid.

When you are wondering why you don't hear birds chirping in the yard and you look out the window. #itallmakessensenow #feedthebirds #notwantingtofeedthehawks #butheyhavetoeattoo #ConnectwithNature #backyardbirdshop ... See MoreSee Less

We get this effect due to the neighborhood peregrines from under the St Johns bridge!

Yep, had a bunch of dove feathers in my yard last evening from a Hawk attack.

My backyard went quiet during this moment too

This Cooper's chased a squirrel, but was out maneuvered by the squirrel.

We’ve seen a sharp-shinned hawk a couple of times this year. The birds just scatter. I take my feeders down for a few days.

Ugh. I was sitting outside yesterday and heard some crows freaking out. I look up and they are chasing a red tail hawk that had a squirrel😢Nature....

Yep had one of those swoop in and take off with a small bird (chickadee or junco) from my feeder yesterday, leaving a swirl of small feathers.

We had 4 on our wood fence years ago two kids and there parents they were looking into our window at us 🤣

Oh yes. This pine siskin was caught off guard but escaped.

Somebody rang the dinner bell 🔔!

I go out each day & look all around if no birds feeding..often a damn Hawk is just hanging out..get so mad 😠😤 Any remedy for scaring them away??

Same thing at my house 😀

I've have had a redtail hang in the trees and swoop in when the birds were feeding. Morning doves. It was a whoosh and a redtail that zoomed by my back window.

Yup, I had a Coopers Hawk on my back fence the other day. I was honored to witness the catching and consuming of a small mouse.

We have one occasionally show up. One time the squirrels were really upset and chased him away. I tried to get it on camera, but it was a cloudy day so everyone was in shadows.

Each time this guy visits my feeders, it adds more drama to the whole day 😄

Have one visit daily but seldom successful.

We have a falcon that comes thru about once a month.

A Cooper’s hawk?
