Sharpie hanging around

14 Feb 2022 3 3 50
A friend tells me her father used to call her bird-feeder a "hawk-feeder." This afternoon I noticed a junco hiding under the tree on our deck, stock-still. So I looked around for what he was frightened by. Sure enough, this sharp-shinned hawk was just six or eight metres away, sitting in the apple tree. Until I got too close, Sharpie wasn't bothered by me. He just kept looking around for a meal. When I did get in too close, he flew off next-door into another low tree. And then on his way. The junco came out from hiding.
