I know this is probably something everyone else has seen but I was pretty excited this morning when I saw this up close. I was walking around checking my nestboxes when I heard lots of "screaming". When I looked up I saw about 10 little birds chasing after the Hawk who hangs around our yard. I had read about "mobbing" before but I hadn't seem it close up. Here is a picture I got but they a little far a way when I finally got the camera focused. You can clearly see the Hawk out in front.
