I was a little late this year (like every year) in overseeding the lawn, just did it a little over a week ago. The doves love to come and eat the seeds. Hoover and especially Kona do a great job chasing them off, but they need their beauty sleep.
On Friday I knew the dogs were asleep but I heard a bunch of wings flap as the doves flew off the lawn. Turns out a hawk had landed on our wall and was hanging around keeping an eye out for stragglers. She was a beautiful bird, gave us a good look at those gray striped tail feathers. After a little poking around on Google, it appears to have been a Cooper’s Hawk.
