Not only do these hawks possess remarkable hunting skills, but they are also super territorial. This means that the local wildlife population will be significantly decreased.
Their common prey includes various species, such as Mourning doves, American robins, Jays, mice, squirrels, and even domestic chickens. They would also attack small pets running around the garden!
They could easily confuse window reflections of the sky or trees during fast pursuits for clear path, leaving you with smashed glass all over your yard!
