Yep we have those and they are big, you know if you have a quite a few geese maybe the hawk wouldn't mess with them, I'm thinking they would prefer something smaller. 7 Large geese would probably deter a hawk. Especially if they stay together.It might be a Red Tail Hawk. It looked similar to this.
Good idea, my geese which is only 2 won't go outside of their fenced in area unless I go with them, same with the ducks, the chickens go over the fence and roam around but have been sticking close to bushes under cover mostly, this is a rough time of year when the trees lose their leaves it makes everything open and the flock more venerable,. I don't open the gate unless i am home, I worry more about roaming dogs than hawks most of the time,. The one recovering was it attacked by something?
I have no idea how things like that can be filmed and no one intervene, I just could not watch to the end. Your braver than me H.
I did not know that, the falcon got taken by an Eagle? I was thinking all this time that the falcon took down the goose for food.
I don't know why it was allowed to take the goose but later on I guess it got a return favor and was taken by an eagle. Nature, go figure, everything comes full circle. I still say it's too bad it couldn't have been the owner of this bird. yeah, yeah, I know all about the hunting edge and all that. At one time I was going to raise falcons and hunt with them. There are still other ways to keep them on the edge without allowing them to take more than they need or could possibly use. Just my opinion.I did not know that, the falcon got taken by an Eagle? I was thinking all this time that the falcon took down the goose for food.
I was telling my son about this and he said in our state you can actually use falcons for hunting game, I didn't know that.
Most states allow it last time I checked. I couldn't do it though. Not hungry enough I guess.
