We also have a nice bird feeder in our front yard. They and other birds love it.

But. Yesterday we saw a hawk loitering around, and in the afternoon had a little bird in his mouth on our driveway and then finally flew off. We’ve seen hawks before but never one with (one of our birds) for lunch. Yuck.

Yes, it’s nature and circle of life, but….

If i see another hawk nearby i may go out to get a shotgun. Gotta protect our little birdies.

Any idea in how to get rid of hawks?
