This morning, when I stepped out to check on Rusty, a young Cooper's hawk flew out of one of the trees adjacent to her mews, accompanied by a bunch of complaining passerines. I'm not sure what the Cooper's hawk was up to. Rusty did not seem perturbed.
A bit later, I saw a red-shouldered hawk flying over the house and calling. There were at least two other RSHs that I could hear in the neighborhood.
I noticed a new bivalve shell in the driveway, which tells me that one of the ponds has mussels, and that it is likely that we also have raccoons somewhere around here.
