FYI Hawks are mirgrating now. Watch over your babies

We had a flock of about 50 Canada Geese that came in and stayed on our lake for a couple of days. I had my chickens free ranging and went out to check on them and heard a lot of noise down at the lake, which is to the front of the house, and my chickens made for their pens. As I stepped around the house to see what was going on, I ran into DH who had been watching the lake from the house. The geese were swimming in the middle of the lake and a flock of about 10 hawks were diving at them. I'd never seen anything like it. The geese were going nuts! I put my babies up in their covered pens and DH ran down to the lake shouting at the hawks. They flew off, but I've been on watch ever since.
 
They were going after the geese! Oh my.

I still haven't gotten over the pics posted by Zazouse... Whoa.

Mine have been kept up ever since and we still see a hawk here and there walking on the ground by their runs. I know one is out there when I look out and every single bird is in the coop.
