I have enjoyed the hawks so much. I thought Rick's comment about UNinterfering with nature was a masterpiece. We've just about interfered wildlife out of existence. I also watch the peregrine falcons in Harrisburg and think it is just perfect that they have nested for so many years on the Rachel Carson Office Building. Rachel would have loved it and she alwo would have loved the FI webcam!
ReplyDeleteThank you for all the wonderful info. on the hawks. We have 4 baby robins that just arrived yesterday in our small tree out back.
ReplyDeleteThe nest looks to small for all those babies and mom. i worry about them when we have bad thunder storms.I hope they do as well as the hawks are doing.
The Philly hawks had to weather a couple of severe thunderstorms, but seemed quite unconcerned about them. Good luck with your robins! They will become part of your family!
ReplyDeleteThank you, they are little fuzz balls right now.
ReplyDeleteLooks like we are in for some bad weather, thank you for reminding me that the baby hawks did fine in the thunder storms we had.
