I have seen this happen several times and I finally got a decent capture of it. There were 2 crows that were chasing off a Red Tail hawk. I find it funny because the hawk is larger and I would think more fierce but I saw this 2 days in a row a couple weekends ago. I guess because it is 2 to 1 and they tag team against the hawk it seems.
Crows chase owls as the owls raid the crows' nest, maybe it is the same thing with the hawks. While the crows aren't one nest now, it might be ingrained..
ReplyDeleteProbably is and that is probably a good reason. Makes sense anyway. Thanks Jim.
DeleteNice capture of the inflight action, Shelly.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Tom! I was rather pleased with this one.
