I've only had summer for a few short weeks.<br />My DH and I just saw a hawk flying by with some poor critter in it's talons when we were driving to church Sunday. Too bad you have to stand guard over your chickens now. Are you a good shot by any chance. And I don't mean your camera! <br />I know it sounds harsh. But we had a horrible time with rabbits this spring. Tim shot a couple and left them lying in the yard to decay(until we couldn't stand the smell) and we couldn't get a bunny in our yard now if we begged it.<br />Do you remember Dr. Hook and how he used to dress in that chicken outfit while performing on "The Midnight Special"? Maybe you could rent one and fool that ol' hawk. If you take my advice, please get one of your children to get a shot of you for all of us, OK?<br />Always thinking-Kimberlycamp and cottage livinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09493023859271366201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6044361545139026110.post-51138775789462981992011-08-09T13:24:05.891-07:002011-08-09T13:24:05.891-07:00Hmmm, your chickens have good survival instincts. ...Hmmm, your chickens have good survival instincts.

We were out walking, and I heard sparrows doing their hawk warning. So I looked around just in time to see a kestrel dive out of a tree and swoop under a parked car where some sparrows were hiding. And this sparrow starts screaming, like, "REE REE REE!" A minute later the kestrel flew off without a sparrow, so I guess it got away after all.<br /><br />But yeah. Have to babysit those poor chickens.Kessiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15019626781634777336noreply@blogger.com
