I was out collecting eggs, when my flighty and easily spooked Welsummer made a loud noise and darted under the yucca tree. My Cochin was beside me as I was crouched to get the eggs and she was growling. Never heard anything like it. I saw her looking up into our large oak. On a branch just above our heads was a small Coopers hawk! I was so mad that I wasn't thinking. I just kind of panicked and wanted it to go away. So I hurled what I had at hand, which was an egg. I didn't hit the hawk (thankfully!), but I managed to hit the branch it was perched on and scared it off. Ooh! I love hawks as they are beautiful, majestic birds. But I hate them for thinking my beloved girls are on the menu!
