This is exactly what happened here yesterday. We knew the red-tails were nesting on our property, but since we hadn't seen them, felt safe in "knowing" that they normally hunt in open fields or alongside roadways. Wrong! When they're hungry, they're hungry and rules be da**ed. Especially when they are feeding their young. Today I've heard them even more than ever. The chickens have stayed inside the henhouse most of the day, even though the run is more secure since we covered it with netting last evening.
