Hawk attack

Saturday was scary. More for the birds though.

The door had been open and the birds were approaching the door, but not going outside (as far as I could tell). I walked out to do something, and heard an aweful noise. I ran over to the noise and a hawk (sort unknown) flew up into a tree. Huddled in the undergrowth was Mambo, surrounded by feathers. I pulled him out, looked him over, and found he was physically fine. A moment later he was back in the coop, running around like nothing had happened. I have not determined what kind of hawk it is, even though I have a field guide. It was the same size as the guinea, so it's surprising the guinea got attacked in the first place. I doubt this will be the last time this happens.

Kiki also seems to have been injured -- she is not putting much weight on her left leg. Perhaps there was a mad scramble when the hawk attacked and she hurt herself.

Kittywhee is acting broody (as is Kiki) -- she's sitting in one of the hideouts I created for just that purpose. No eggs yet, but I bet she's getting ready.
