Don't go there. No good will come of it!

We've gotten 4 red-tailed hawks in the last 24 hours. Three were hit by cars. They're crazy this time of year. The juvies haven't learned about cars yet, but don't have their parents around to yell at them for flying across roads. We're fortunate that we have an awesome avian vet who does some amazing ortho surgeries.

The 4th one got itself trapped in a hav-a-hart type trap that was set to trap raccoons. I don't know what they used for bait, but apparently it was appealing enough for a hawk to walk right in and help himself. Silly hawk.
