I had this issues as well so what we had to do is build off of their current covered run and make a way larger area and cover it. We purchased deer block netting 7'x100' and it was like $20 a rolls. we covered the entire are where they are now "free range". You can also buy fowl netting from amazon which is basically the same thing.
So if a suspicious-looking individual were seen casing your house, would you run buy four extra deadbolts for every door, install an extra alarm system, add more outdoor lighting....or would you see to it that he moved along? I refuse to let hawks hang around. That way I don't have to worry about it. It doesn't take much to discourage them, at least around here. I think they're beautiful creatures, and I admire their regality, but I didn't raise my chickens to feed them. They have plenty of pickings elsewhere.
