A Red Tail Hawk wanders into the Crows nest, and the battle ensues. The Hawk, startled by me driving down the road, lept from its perch and flew into enemy crow territory. Two crows without hesitation flew into the fray and began strafing the Hawk, kicking its back and pulling at its feathers. The hawk began evasive maneuvers but was unable to shake the more agile crows. It reminded me of scenes from WWII documentary's of fighters jets strafing enemy bombers as they flew into enemy territory. The Crows won the day as the hawk fled
