#backyarddrama — Public Fediverse posts

Are you kidding me?? I was (quite obsessively) checking the camera earlier and I started remote recording because OMG there's two hedgehogs! And then this happened! 😱 (Looks like they weren't even impressed, lol)

I'm not sure about what hawk was eating that was green, but I think the bunnies made it to hop another day.

The absolute focus on the rabbit.. that hawk is locked in.

I guess it got pissed because it hopped back on the fence and started squawking at us.

I had to remind the wife: "hey, hawks got to eat too, let's give it some space"

The usual neighborhood cardinals and other birds were chirping like crazy as if to say "danger danger"

And right on cue..

This juvenile cooper hawk is wondering what the hell the human is holding up to its eye #cooperhawk #hawk #nature #backyarddrama

That look that says

"Motherfucker, do you know how hard building a nest is?!" 🤣

TIL that Robins also suffer from "Not invented Here" syndrome.

So building on yesterday's #backyarddrama. The robins eventually chilled out after getting tired of seeing me coming out and clapping at them.

I checked the same spot today and behold there was a nest in progress. I get got the ladder and knocked that one down and checked on the "empty" one and saw that it was also unoccupied and knocked that one down too.

I'm impressed what they can do without thumbs

I should be writing code.. but I'm the old man yelling at a *new* pair of robins trying to make a nest a year after repainting the house.

"HEY!! I know you are on a timetable here, but this ain't Zootopia or Noah's ARK.. you need to bounce"

So she flies away and comes back with a beak full of straw and keeps building anyway

#BackyardDrama Earlier today, I was treated to the spectacle of watching a #CarolinaWren vs #MourningDove territory dispute. The wrens won. Two played decoys while a third took to a nearby tree and summoned auxiliary troops through the most engaging song. #TeamWren chased off a gang of about five or six doves. #Birds #Birding #NatureLovers
