Where do you live?
We have the red-shouldered hawk...a lot of them actually.
You actually took that picture of the eagle?

It's so true. I've plenty of field that's loaded with mice. Hawks regularly perch on the phone wire not 300 yards from where my birds are in electric poultry fencing. Will I eventually lose a bird to a bird of prey? I've no doubt of it. Eventually something will happen making for low mice population one year (animal populations are cyclical) so hawks will need to risk injury attacking large prey- my birds.The area I live in has lots of ponds and bayous. I have a small pond for my girls to hunt around. Most importantly there are lots of other birds, squirrels, skunks bunnies and raccoons for big birds to eat.
Very sorry to hear this!I lost two hens to a hawk today. It went into the coop. I heard a ruckus and ran out and scared the hawk out. Buying netting tomorrow.
