Faunascrolling--what's visiting where you are?

I wish the hawks here would go after the rats I keep seeing on the bird cam. We've stopped feeding, and the dogs aggressively chase them down. We will not be using rat poison.

This retention pond with the grasses is next to the Aldi parking lot.
Link to videoAnyone have a clue who the noisemakers are? We thought it might be birds but there wasn't a single one to be seen. I even tossed a small stone into the grasses to see if I could flush anyone out. Nada.

View out of our living room window:
Both hawks took off when I went out the front door to try to get better photos. The one left its squirrel tartare on the driveway. One of the birds flew back into my neighbor's tree and has been looking at the carcass remnants for the last half hour. I wish he/she would get a hawky bag and take the leftovers home to eat.

@andyd You know, I'm not entirely certain, but I think they are immature Cooper's hawks. All the photos I could take were of the backs of the birds (from inside the house and through the mini-blinds!), and most of the photos I see online are of the chest and face! But I did see a few online pics of youngsters, and they had those light splotches on the back.

Red foxes here in Staten Island recently. Wild turkeys have been here for years.

In a nearby suburb, a critter does what it was born to do.
