Will a hawk come back for its kill if it was scared off?
The blue jays started making this terrible racket in my backyard, so I walked outside to find out what was going on. They were flying all over in great numbers making a big fuss. Eventually, I saw a hawk in my yard on the ground with its kill. My presence scared it off, and it left the dead blue jay on the ground. It made me sad because the blue jay is already dead… I’m kind of hoping he comes back to grab it. Do you think that’s likely?
