          Cosmo is in the house. She's in the guest room the last couple days and seems to be loving it, although she can't run wild like she did in the yard. Once we fed her once though, she never left our yard again.

          The first night inside she slept under the bed. Yesterday she napped by me a couple times and slept by me part of the night, plus a 4 am walkabout for which I was the trail. She's sweet, smart and comes when her name is called. VERY playful.

            Had a screech owl right outside our kitchen windows the other night. Couldn't see him but sure could hear him. First time we've ever had one - I had to use google to even figure out what I was hearing. The cats were SUPER freaked out - it is definitely a spooky thing to hear in the dark.

              Just saved a life. And deprived someone of dinner.

              Went outside and heard a bird screeching. Looked over to my neighbor's front lawn and saw a Cooper's hawk on the lawn. Looked like it was holding something down with its talons. I walked towards it and it took off to the south. A now-free Northern flicker took off to the north.

              Human messing with nature.

                Good for you. A flicker’s pretty big game for a Cooper’s hawk.

                  I ran into a neighbor just now and told her about the hawk-flicker encounter. She said she saw two hawks tag-teaming a squirrel last winter.

                  The squirrel was not as fortunate as the flicker....

                    Yeah, I've seen hawks get squirrels in my yard too, then go into the greenspace and tear them up. It's pretty funny to watch the young hawks learn to hunt, they're quite inept and often end up chasing squirrels around on the ground.

                      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.
