I was sitting in a parking lot doing paperwork on my computer. I saw a hen turkey walking along the edge of the parking lot across the street. That lot has a wooded area and a lake behind it. The turkey looked like it was feeding as it went back and forth into the tall grass on the edge of the lot.
I noticed a redtail hawk fly over the parking lot and land in a tree near the edge of the lot. The turkey flew up and went into the same tree and chased the hawk out of the tree and flew after it until the hawk had left the area. The turkey then landed back in the lot and went back to the tall grass. I could see some movement near the hen so I'm guessing she had some poults in there.
Kind of a neat thing to see happen.
