A red-tailed hawk just sailed over my house very low surrounded on all sides by shrieking and Tees-zweeting swallows, both tree and barn and perhaps 20 total. Looked like some slower flying, shorter tailed juv barn swallows in the mix. They were really really committed to seeing the hawk off. How would a redtail ever grab a swallow? They clearly thought it possible.
