This is a very good reminder Selina, thank you! :thumbup: We all do need to be extremely careful when we let our babies outside...you never know what is lurking! |
it's important that we keep an eye in the sky. |
Yes, they are out in abundance this year. We took about a 25 mile drive to my sister's and on the way we counted the hawks and there were nearly TWENTY!! :eek::eek::eek: Yikes! I think we had better be careful!! |
Good reminder! Every summer we go up to our cabin and there are a lot of eagles flying around! Bella gets so aggravated because she wants to run and play on the beach with her dog friends and mommy is always joined at the hip with her! I cant just imagine her saying "gosh my mom is so annoying!" but you have to be there they can grab them in a second. |
Thank you for the reminder. We just saw two hawks yesterday fly over our backyard....so scary to think about them swooping down and getting Ziggy or Beau. :eek: We always watch our boys when they're outside. A friend of mine told me that a hawk got her neighbor's Yorkie. They were in their yard, the hawk flew down and grabbed him and then sat in a tree and ate the little Yorkie right in front of her.:eek: That is so upsetting and sad.:( You know we didn't used to have to be concerned about this...at least I don't remember it if we did. Wonder why it's so much more common now? So much to worry about...coyotes, too. What can we do? I wonder can netting be purchased to fit over a fenced area in the yard? |
We have to be very careful here, we actually had a bobcat kill a turkey one night & the Red Tail hawks were trying to carry it off the next morning in our front yard! It was pretty terrifying! |

I had Abby and Daisy out for a walk on Thursday when a hawk flew right over our heads. I scooped Abby up in my arms and pulled Daisy back beside my leg, instead of out in front of me. The hawk didn't pay any attention to us, but it made me very nervous. |
I posted a thread about this a couple weeks ago b/c Ive had 3 near misses (TG) in the past 2 months with these DA** birds! One went so far as to fling dove feathers at me from the tree in my front yard! They can fly over 50 miles an hour and can drop straight or curve into an area to get prey. They are deffo NOT something to mess with as their tallons can rip a full grown mans leg OFF! I didnt know that til I called a wild bird place here in FL to see how I can get rid of them, and btw, you cant, they are here forever. So keep one eye on the sky and 3 on your babies! Stay safe out there! |
