I'm not getting EGA The Rise of Skywalker Part 2 done today, so I'm just going to publish it on Friday (5/15/2020). Instead, here's something that happened today.

I occasionally fly my drone to discourage hawks from coming into my yard since I've seen them attack a couple of our chickens. (I'd never hurt a hawk, I just assumed the loud noise would be enough to keep them away.) Up until today, I thought it was working, but I found out I was sorely mistaken. This hawk is not afraid of my DJI Mavic Air. Next time I'm going to shoot in 120fps and set up a second camera to shoot the drone.

Chickens are ok! I put them away right after I landed. Hawk was totally fine too. He stalked the yard for 15 minutes after. Pretty confident it's a red-shouldered hawk, but I'm not 100% sure. Even though they're ruthless with our chickens they are gorgeous birds.
