Hawk Steals Two 14-Days-Old Baby Robins from Nest
- 7 years ago
Occurred on June 30, 2016 / Denver, Colorado, USA
Info from Licensor: "Robins built a nest on some 2x4's stacked against the house. I set up a camera to live stream to YouTube. I also recorded the stream locally. The day the hawk did his raid was day 14 since hatching and there were many live stream viewers waiting for the birds to fledge. I had the live stream on my PC to monitor the comments when I heard a flurry of comment 'dings'. I looked up to see the nest empty and the first comment stating simply 'HAWK'. The 3rd bird survived and I watched him and his parents in the surrounding brush and trees for the next two weeks until one day they were gone."
