Stoney Meadow Maple
Crowing
I got home from work a little earlier than usual, i went over to talk to the ducks for a bit before going inside, they were gabbling away at me and suddenly stopped almost all at once, and started looking, at first I thought down but then I realized up, with their heads collectively cocked to one side watching a hawk soaring quite high and a bit away. I suspect our red tail hawks are probably after much smaller prey than the ducks, we have abundant squirrels, chipmunks and mice, i feel like our 5-10 lb ducks amongst the trees are pretty large fir a red tail. Maybe i am wrong but i was pleased that at least they were paying attention to that kind of thing. ,
