    Rehoming a Roo or two :(

    Hawks

    I know nothing about hawks and other birds of pray.. Where I live I don't think we have many but my neighbor had a very small dog and aside she has seen hawks in the trees eating other birds eggs.. How do I recognize them ? And how can I deter them from my yard ?

    My new babies
