How do i get rid of it...*pics*

I think it has been handled, even if it were sick I thnk the cat would have gotten more a reaction, Most vets have the names and numbers for wildlife rehabers.

Good luck

Seems too calm to be a wild one. We have a falcon club fairly close to our area (they buy quail from us to feed them). I would guess this guy maybe came from someone such as that.

Not a red tailed hawk. Their tail is really short, stubby, and red UNDERNEATH. Looks like a Cooper's or a Sharpshinned. Check out the tail. I think a Cooper's is more rounded at the tip, and the Sharpie's is more square. Also, the Cooper's tail is really long.

Way too small for a redtail, or a Cooper's since both are bigger than the cats I have known. I thought sharpshinned when I saw it.

I must admit, I'm very jealous right now. I find raptors amazing. They're all very beautiful birds. I would keep feeding it. It may have just gotten lost? We've had pigeons come to our door when they get lost. (they have bands on their legs)

In my opinion it is not afraid because it has no reason to be. Look closely at the beak and feathering, almost perfect. In the wild there will be damaged and/or missing feathers, scarring and chips in the beak. I wouldn't be scared to guess that someone had it as a pet, decided that they didn't want it anymore, and turned it loose. Without hunting skills it will starve.

Nice raptor though. I hope it can get the rehab that it needs. Something is definitely awry.

Oh don't kill the poor guy he's so sweet just take him to a wildlife rehab center.

I think it hasn't been long off the nest. Looks like a young one to me

I'm glad it's not here. I'd want to adopt it, especially if I got it to coo when I fed it. I told my husband this story and he said "where are they, I want it".
