Re: [CHICKENS-101] Uh Oh

 

 Its a coopers hawk.

I don't think i'd show this photo too much because its illegal to kill them or even harass them.

We are having a problem with a young red tail & we can't even shoot rock salt at it because of the laws, even though it wants to make a meal of our chickens.

Look what got into my modern bantam pen last night........
I didn't find him until he killed my favorite hen (why does it always happen that way?)
but Slick, my rooster really stomped him good.
This guy was about 10 inches from head to butt. Not including the tail.
Beautiful bird but I am very sad about my little hen. She is the one that would come running to me every time I let the chickens out and get on my lap and love on me. :-(

Anyone know what kind he is?
