Description

While doing some yard clean up, there was a big ruckus in the tree overhead. A group of Crows was swarming this Red tailed Hawk. The hawk completely ignored them, and stayed put for about 5 minutes. The group of Crows went from 2 at the start, to 7 before the hawk silently, glided away. As it left the tree, it was then harassed by a Merlin, nesting in another tree nearby. Quite the show for me.
