As the sun was setting just the other evening, I witnessed a charming sight. A bloom-covered branch from a neighbor’s yard had found a way through our fence. As I tried to find a good vantage point for a photo, the setting sun also made an appearance. A small treasure to be enjoyed in these times!

The northern German city of Flensburg is known not least for its charming courtyards, some of which house shops and restaurants or cafés, some are private but open to the public. Last week I spotted another one.

Consensus is either red tailed hawk or red shouldered hawk.
It has been hanging out in our yard lately and has been killing our doves and quail. While it is a beautiful bird, I really would like to deter it from hurting our dove and quail families we have. Should I just let nature take its course or is there something I can do to make it leave our yard and go somewhere else?
This guy came into the backyard yesterday. I went out to make sure the deer could find it's way back over the fence. Instead he started following me around. Had to finally make enough noise for him to leave. Then hung out in the green belt, munching away for about 20 minutes. Before he left, I told him to watch out for the local Cougar.
Looking for Help
Mom and three kits were caught on camera almost every night in our backyard. Mom and one of her kits stopped showing up. Concerned for the two little ones left behind (and visible on camera) I called the Fish and Wildlife Dept. When I told them mom and one kit had been gone for two weeks, I was told mom was probably NOT coming back, that she was either dead or trapped. After speaking to them we decided to let nature take it's course. Eventually, they would leave on their own.
Well, I am really relieved to say after over 3 weeks mom and the other kit are back with the two left behind. The three little ones were rolling around in the yard as if they were happy to see each other...and all four walking the fence line with mom in the lead! (Now I can sleep better!)
I appreciate your visit and so grateful for your comments/faves!
Stay safe and healthy!!
