I don't know if it's Pale Male and Lola or their kids, but two hawks flew over my little sanctuary twice this week! The first time they caused such a ruckus that 8 doves and 4 pigeons took off like rockets - one of them crashing into the window in an attempt to make a quick getaway! It was cartoonish with doves and pigeons shooting straight up in the air. The hawks didn't pay any attention to my little visitors as they were flying pretty high in a southeast direction but their presence sure caused a panic and I hope they return every day as the pigeons are out of control to the point of swinging on the birdfeeder I have put there for finches, and sending seeds flying to the ground so they can forage for them.
Luiz is getting me a super soaker for Xmas but if the hawks keep flying overhead I may not have to use it as much as I though.
Merry Xmas, you beautiful hawks!
