I went to Ace Hardware, and bought these large plastic owls...you put sand in them, and then hang them all around the back yard. You have to periodically.....like ever other day, reposition the huge plastic owls, but the hawks are deterred by owls....so they do stay farther away...but if you think you were successful in running them away, and then stop moving the owls around, the hawks catch on and will come back! I used to have the hawks sit on my fence and watch me and my babies out in the yard....you certainly can not let them run freely with hawks sitting around, watchinmg.......and YES! that hawk is watching your Peanut and is only waiting for the opportunity to make a meal of him! |
