This is the predator that thinks our farm is a fast food restaurant. It's a Red Tailed Hawk. We're super lucky, our invader is a rare white breed. It has killed too many chickens to count. Very, very frustrating.....
It keeps us looking up in the sky constantly and listening for it's distinctive cry.....
Way too often I have scared it unknowingly as it snacks on it's prey. We have learned to listen for the warning signs from the hens that something is attacking. But by then it is often too late.
I'm glad to be forewarned that this guy is in the neighbourhood...beautiful, but so distructive to a backyard flock.
