The area had acres of avocado and citrus trees freeze, even with the wind machines running. One day a goshawk flew into my walnut tree looking real pitiful. The next day she was still there and looking worse so I figured the cold was starving her out. I had a lot of racing pigeons to cull after the season so I thought I would see if she would take one. I pulled the flights on one and pitched it into a corral and the gos came down and took it back up in the walnut. For the next two weeks I gave her pigeons to eat every day and watched her improve daily. About the time the cold snap broke she left. I'm guessing she went back to the mountains because I never saw her again but I always felt I got her through that rough spot in her life and gave her a chance to survive.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05999096236175593812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8732486.post-51406181111736633142014-12-24T20:17:43.759-08:002014-12-24T20:17:43.759-08:00We who are stuck on the Julian Calendar, with two ...We who are stuck on the Julian Calendar, with two weeks to go till Christmas, are glad that someone's putting content online on December 24th!
