Hawks- Please help

[CrystaBub]

@TCCL Hmmmm bottle rockets! I never thought of that! I've fired off a few warning shots but they must know they are protected b/c it doesn't phase them. I bet a bottle rocket would send a clear message!

Air predators are my absolute worst fear - we have so many - a bald eagle and 2 hawks have been here lately. I almost walk on top of my ducks when they are foraging in the yard - which is not very often lately b/c they are very aware of the big sky since all of the leaves have fallen...

Yep. I highly recommend it. Get a lot of bottle rockets, a wind proof (plasma) lighter, set up some launching stations and everytime you see the hawks, fire away relentlessly. If everytime a human is out there and there are exploding projectiles come at them....most if, not all creatures will learn to look for lunch somewhere else.

The hawks we have here have so far been deterred by the presence of humans but then again I yell at them and wave stuff like crazy. But I am sure as winter closes in and food gets scarce they might not be so reluctant.
