Now there is a new hawk in town, two actually. They showed up when the husband and I were on duck duty. Daisy sounded a loud quacking alarm and all the ducks hid under a bush (we had trouble finding them). We safely locked everyone into the put under the bird netting (an essential item if you have poultry or water fowl).
The next morning the little bugger was sitting on top of the duck pen, waiting for his breakfast.
He is quite fearless (or should I say young and doesn't know better), and lets you get pretty close. He has been hanging about the duck pen, so we got some reinforcement...
Yes, he is plastic, but seems to be doing the trick so far...haven't seen the hawk since we put him up. Of course that could be coincidental...
