p.1 #1 · Why I can't leave my new puppy alone in the backyard for a second.
This guy was eye-balling our new little puppy, 'Ollie' in the back yard yesterday morning. He was perched atop the tall utility pole in the back corner of the yard. 'Ollie' is not much bigger than a large squirrel, and like I told my wife, a hawk might not be able to carry him off, but sure could do a lot of damage trying.

Greg,
That is a concern, but Max looks like he is ready to kick ass.

Thanks for the comment, Chris.
Actually, that photo of Max was simply a mid-yawn after a good nap. Like most male cats, he can be 'bitey' and even though he understands "No bite!", he still gives me a love nip every now and then, which at my age almost always result in some amount of blood loss.
I still love him a lot, and he still brings us his toy mouse every night after we go to bed - cats are weird.

I have many red-shouldered hawks in my area and they never touch the squirrels, sad to say, or the free roaming house cats. They do go after small birds and snakes.
