Tar was much funnier. I think we need tar tax now.

And her Dada Mr P

I did not realize they were in Canada. That makes things more difficult.

She is in Alberta, I could ship stuff to her easy, but worry about getting there if had to evacuate for fires…

Anyone hear from Marie today? She hasn’t been posting anything that I have seen?

I was just about to PM her, it’s almost 3am there now.

Killers at Rest

These 2 killers stopped by my daughter's deck on Saturday. She thought one of them might have a leg issue, see how it is holding its one leg out.

They were completely unafraid of her. So much so that with her standing in the deck, they lay down! Had anyone ever seen a hawk do this!

They seem like juvenile sharp shinned hawks. What do you think @ChicoryBlue ?

Probably just as well, did you take a Tylenol? If no go do it now!

Looks like the foot is fine?

Wow that’s unusual. Yes the one has a leg problem Unfortunately. I have never seen hawks be so bold or act like this. I would say they are distressed, I think its early for hawks to be fledged yet (but maybe not where you are further south).

Any chance she can contact animal services for guidance?

She reached out to raptor rescue but the hawks flew off before they could get someone to her house. She is even further south than me. She is in Richmond VA.

I did see that they do ship to Canada, so wonder if it would get past customs.

Ah then yep likely fledged youngsters. Well not much she can do other than keeping an eye out.

So is she allowed hens at her place? Does she want any (enabling haha).
