Yes it was in the daytime and it is so scary to think of one flying away while you can only watch

I hope everyone is always alert and does anything you can to deter (you can't prevent but you can deter...make your yard less inviting as the one nextdoor). I have holographic ribbons all thru my yard, Mandie wears an orange vest, and I am always in the yard around her...never sitting to the side and watching her. |
I have a back porch closed in with wire and lattice so mine can go in and out through a doggie door, they love to lay in the sun and i don't have to worry that something is going to take them away for lunch
