Well, it's a bird feeder, right? My feeders are located in or close to brushy areas. I even put the Christmas tree close to one of them for cover. Just looked out the window and watched a male Cooper's hawk trying to work his way into a matted down multiflora rose clump. Had to be a couple of Juncos or Song Sparrows hiding in there. I intervened and chased him off - go eat someplace else!
