Well it looks like Mr. Hawk is back! I believe without a doubt this is the same one that was munching on a squirrel in front of my house a couple weekends ago.

The 1st and 2nd picture are Monday morning. Peanut was in his dog run and I was standing there telling him to go potty…. He was lagging as usual- and something just told me to look to the left- when I did I see this big ole hawk sitting on my fence! He was looking or I should say staring at Peanut the whole time he was around! Something startled him and he then flew above us, and landed up on the fern tree.. he then continue to stare at my Peanut!

This morning we had another visit. This would be picture’s 4 and 5. This time I was standing there telling Pnut to poo, and of course he was lagging as usual. I heard a wing flutter, I looked and I saw our friend again! This time he had something- he paid us no attention. He did fly up to the tip of the tree and he seemed like he was eating something, he kept bending down like towards his talons then coming back up- I swear I heard like a bird squeak, maybe like a baby bird he had? Not sure.

Just to be clear, Peanut’s dog run is like a big dog’s run. We have French doors and we use the smaller door as Peanut’s doggy door to the inside of his cage outside, he can go inside and outside as he pleases. DH also put a chain link top on it…

What scares me is, we were just out there the other day ( backyard) and I was throwing Peanut’s ball for him! I guess our days of being outside are over, at least without a leash on!! I do not trust this hawk at all!! He also sneaks around the front yard hiding in the trees!!

I think since I have seen him twice in my backyard and once in my front, I will send a memo out and tape it on the mailboxes so people are aware of this Hawk.. I know lots of people leave their small dogs outside and cats outside. This hawk is big, I want to say it like 6 pounds… I have never seen one this big around my house.
