One actually picked up one of my keets, and took it out to the pasture and was going to eat it, but my yellow lab went after it, and made it drop it. Then she grabbed up the keet and brought it back! Poor keet died of fright after she got retrieved!<br /><br />I have nothing to say about what happens to hawks on my property. But I love my chickens, ducks, guineas, and turkeys very much and I am not about to lose any of them to hawks. They need to avoid my property, I think.lizzybaxterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05560075141830422842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7789865586418282697.post-49639038142716578492016-03-24T19:01:02.059-04:002016-03-24T19:01:02.059-04:00A nesting family of Cooper's Hawks resulted in...A nesting family of Cooper's Hawks resulted in our building a very large run.

I rushed out with my Paw Patrol, and luckily she just came away with some missing feathers on her neck. There is a pair that lives in the woods across our road so I'm always on the lookout.
