caught a video of a hawk or something diving to catch a fish???
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
it was circling for a while and the geese kept honking. I don't think they've got goslings yet tho, so the hawk had to try and catch a fish instead.

it’s crazy how much diversity there can be in one species…these are all pictures of the same bird species (red-tailed hawk)

So I'm leaving work and something darts in front of me, maybe 10ft away, too fast for me to see what it is. Peek around the tree blocking my path and I see this
Tumblr media
Just like... a whole ass hawk. Dude's gotta be about 1.5ft tall. Massive fucking bird. And it's just staring me straight in my soul like this, even as I try to move ahead. It didn't budge. And there's only this path back to my car unless I want to walk on a busy highway. So I have the option of Death By Raptor or Death By Truck.
So I walk in the poison ivy filled patch off the sidewalk. Guy still isn't moving. Still staring me directly in the eyes. And I do this thing when animals are behaving strangely where I'll talk to them, so I'm just like, "Hey, man. I don't know you. You don't know me. This feels really threatening. I'm just trying to get to my car, dude. Can I get some space please? You're a big fucking bird. I see those claws. You could kill me right now, but I'd appreciate if you didn't, ok?"
It didn't move until I was about 2ft away. Again: I'm as far from it as I can be without walking into the street. It clearly wasn't going to budge. I walk past, thing flies up (silent, btw. Scary) and lands on a brick wall a little further ahead
Tumblr media
Anyway. Weird guy. Nearly shit my pants when I noticed a bird big enough to carry off a fully grown cat was just... there, staring me in the face, unwilling to move away from me, a human, something it should see as a threat. I watched behind me the whole rest of the way to my car, just in case this bird decided to help me shed this mortal coil. 10/10 experience. Super cool guy.

A fluffy Sharp-Shinned Hawk. 🗡️
[Edit no. 2: WRONG. This is a Cooper's Hawk. I'm leaning on @hawkpartys' expertise here: "This is a Cooper's Hawk. See pale nape, dark cap, thick tarsi, graduated tail feathers, and large white undertail coverts."
While I based my ID on size compared to another nearby hawk, maybe this is just a small individual. To quote the National Audubon Society, and to reassure myself, "Lots of birders—expert birders—have come away shaking their heads and jotting down “Cooper’s/Sharp-shinned” in their notebooks."]
