When they're hungry they'll do anything you can never be safe enough when it comes to birds of prey. Mine are out only if I'm within earshot of them. Soon as I hear the first sign of distress me and my dog are out there walking the perimeter. I have all bantams and they're easier targets than jumbo sized chickens but I rarely have an attack because of the method I use.
ETA: And if my male peacock honks then I KNOW there is trouble. He never gives a false alarm. His neck doubles in size and he jerks his neck back and forth taking huge strides. I just follow his line of sight to what he's looking at and thats how I find the hawk.
