Red-tailed Hawk Getting Mobbed
Переглядів 1174 місяці тому
2024_0531 - Hearing a crescendo of alarms from the neighborhood nesters I figured there was a raptor of some sort within the vacinity. So, I set out to follow the ruckus and soon found what appeared to be a juvenile Red-tailed hawk hunting in and amongst the trees. Not sure if it was able to get anything but it did appear to have a high tolerance for some brazen attacks by the mob of protesters...

Single, double and triple notes represent individual words, with a small rest between each word, longer rests between sentences. Each robin has a name, and they include note slides (two different notes connected over a period of time, just like in our music). Robins form a communication network, transmitting messages/news across North America. You can hear in the background a Robin calling, and the Robin on-screen repeats what they say. I began to learn their language, by immersion, by simply mimicking their calls, not knowing what they were saying or what I was saying, before the COVID lockdown. This language is at least as old as the first bird species, Archaeopteryx, and possibly used by dinosaurs. This could be the oldest known language on Earth.
The sound I hear when I knew I stayed up too late. I’m like “Aw shit”
good
I listen to all these bird calls & songs they are fascinating
So, the drumming that sounds like a mini buzz saw is from a mouse vibrating his foot? Is he doing it as he's chewing?
Some good footage. 👍
Thank you. We had near perfect viewing conditions of clear skies, cool ground temperatures and low humidity.
That's cool!
Thank you. Actually, it was quite warm in the sun during the day with the ground being rather cool. The cool temperatures of the ground helped mitigate convection. There was no post processing on this clip.

Nice
I just caught a wild mouse and after I carefully dropped in corn meal a few tiny bits of cheese and a tiny bowl of water into the large bin he had fell into he started to drum his paw like crazy over and over again...iv been googling why mice do it for the past 30 mins
did you figure out the purpose?
I hate that sound i makes me wanna kill it cause it keeps wakeing me up at 5: 00 every morning...
I have 4 fans in my room, so i dont hear it. Try getting some fans
How cruel, your messed up dude
That's because you play damn games all the time. Do something useful, like get a job.
You're disgusting. Why would you want to kill such a beautiful bird??? Also, why are you sleeping with windows open??
@@rickbachman6432 True, and he has a cringe pfp. (I am not respecting his "pronouns" cause he is not a female, I am.)
Thank you for posting this!!! I have a little white foot making a nest in the porch box and he's drumming away. I thought I was hearing things. He's kind of used to me going in there (I keep bird seed in containers in there) so he's not as scared. He runs, but stops just shy of his exit hole (that he chewed) and drums as he looks up at me with one eye. And then he makes for the escapte!! I have a live trap set up now. Wouldn't mind him around, but he may bring friends and he does make a mess. I'll relocate him with plenty of food and cover. He's super cute and I'm fascinated by this behavior. I wish I knew what it meant as well!
I have been hearing that noise for the last couple nights, really late when all the lights are out. It kinda sounds like the noise a June bug makes when he's upside down. Now I know for sure what it is. Thanks.
this has been driving me nuts every winter. I hear one or two mice running in my basement ceiling, and then hear this buzzing too. I was so confused as it sounded like a beetle flipped upside down. I now know it was the mice too. so funny
There's been a mouse hiding in my room for a few weeks now that does that....it freaks me out & makes it difficult to sleep. Hah! That is hella fast foot beating though...wonder which is faster, a mouse foot or a woodpecker head?
I think a woodpecker. The force they create bc they’re so fast would smash their brain in their skulls but they have a super long tongue that goes back up into their head and creates a sort of cushion to absorb the impact. Look up a picture, it’s horrifying but fascinating
They play percussion in the band known as Mousebeat.
So much talent. I’d much rather listen to this little guy than all that junk on the radio. Hope he impressed the lady robins too.
Well it's a bird I found outside and it's ingured what

Can you imagine the feeling of flying? Imagine the wind, the sun, the freedom; imagine the whole world below you. As a child, I would dream about flying, and I envied the life of a bird soaring high in the sky. But many birds don’t get to live this life and instead lead lives of misery in cages as pets. Caged birds are either captured in the wild or bred in captivity. Both are horrible: One involves knowing what freedom was and the other never knowing a minute of it. Around the world, nearly every species of bird is kept in cages, from pigeons to parrots; people create prisons for every type of these beautiful animals. Many people buy birds not knowing of the cruelty that they will be inflicting on them and often underestimating the care that a bird needs. In the wild, birds would never leave their flock, but pet birds rarely ever have the opportunity even to see another bird for their entire lifetimes. Pet birds are often kept in cramped cages where they are unable even to stretch their wings and never know the joy of flying or the happiness of freedom. Birds in cages crave freedom and companionship and often exhibit aggressive, neurotic, and self-destructive behavior as they languish in cramped cages. Because of their seemingly bad behavior caused by their torturous conditions, people will often condemn them to living in dark corners, in basements, or on balconies, all the while locked inside of cages. Birds are known for their complex communication techniques, their beautiful feathers, and their unique intelligence, but when we cage birds, we take away their lives. Buying birds contributes to this horrible problem. Birds are meant to fly and be with their flock. If you are a bird lover, consider buying binoculars and going on bird-watching hikes or making a backyard oasis for your feathered friends. Never cage birds!
I believe you can keep a bird in a cage, but a large and spacious cage. A proper living cage. You can also get your bird things to play with and distract them. And another good thing is that the cage can just be a little sleeping/comfy area for your bird, so they can actually just have a full room to fly and play in, and you can let them loose in your house or maybe even a special place in your backyard so they have room to fly. But I also clearly understand what you are saying and I think that what you are saying in most cases is actually true. It does indeed make me feel so sad whenever any animal doesn't have the proper living conditions, and if I ever got a pet bird (parakeet or conure most likely) I would be absolutely sure that the bird would have proper, and happy living conditions. Because I love all animals and want them to have the best life, and the best care possible. I would never, ever try to mistreat and animal, and I would most definitely find a way for a bird kept as a house pet to live out its life to the fullest and happiest.
There is no such animal as a “cage bird.” All caged birds were either captured or bred in captivity. In the wild, these beautiful beings are never alone. If they become separated from their flockmates for even a moment, they call wildly to them. They preen each other, fly together, play, and share egg-incubation duties. Many bird species mate for life and share parenting tasks. The evidence of their close companionship and concern for one another is plain to see. Unfortunately for birds, the very qualities that we find admirable and fascinating about them-their brilliant colors, speech capabilities, intelligence, playfulness, and loyalty-have made them the third most popular type of animal companion in the U.S. It’s estimated that 40 million birds in the U.S. are kept caged and often improperly cared for-bored, lonely, and a long way from their natural homes. Many people buy birds on impulse and don’t have a clue how much time, money, and energy is needed to care for them on a daily basis. Birds are as messy and destructive as puppies-something irresponsible breeders and retailers often won’t explain to customers. And unlike puppies, birds continue this behavior for 15 to 75 years. Additionally, birds can be extremely loud and demanding and sometimes severely bite their caretakers. Because most customers aren’t prepared for an animal companion who is as curious, needy, and demanding as a 2-year-old child, countless birds spend their entire lives trapped inside a cage that’s too small in the corner of a living room, basement, or garage, unable to use or stretch their wings and deprived of the vital companionship of other birds. Like dogs on chains, caged birds crave freedom and companionship, not the cruel reality of forced solitary confinement for the rest of their very long lives. Driven mad from boredom and loneliness, caged birds often become aggressive, neurotic, and self-destructive. They pull out their own feathers, mutilate their skin, incessantly bob their heads and regurgitate, pace back and forth, peck over and over again at cage bars, and shake or even collapse from anxiety. Even if a previously caged bird comes into a home in which he or she is allowed a rich, active life, this behavior persists and is extremely difficult to extinguish. The Truth About Bird Suppliers Just as there are puppy mills, there are now enormous bird factories where breeders warehouse thousands of parrots and other exotic birds and remove their offspring in order to sell them to pet stores. These birds are frequently confined to dirty, dimly lit cages, where they are unable to fully stretch their wings. There is no federal legislation to protect birds in the pet trade, and successful prosecution of cruel or negligent bird breeders is unlikely under most state anti-cruelty laws. A parrot-breeding operation in Washington state-which a veterinarian described as a “concentration camp” and where, according to news sources, birds “lived in cold, wet, filthy conditions for years”-remains open and continues to raise birds for the pet trade. The same lack of caring has been reported at breeding facilities across the country. Disease Is Widespread Bird-breeding factories often breed communicable diseases, too, from proventricular dilatation disease (PDD)-the symptoms of which include depression, weight loss, and constant or intermittent regurgitation-to papillomavirus infection, salmonellosis, giardiasis, and psittacine beak and feather disease. Sick birds can give humans or other pet birds chlamydiosis (psittacosis), salmonellosis, E. coli infections, tuberculosis, giardiasis, and other illnesses associated with bacteria and fungi. Smuggling Is Common Wild-caught parrots are also prime commodities in the multibillion-dollar illegal wildlife trade. Hardly a week goes by without another story of a bird smuggler who was caught with parrots in the air vents of his or her car, of small parrots being smuggled in jacket pockets, or of any of hundreds of other usually deadly schemes to import these valuable birds illegally. While many smugglers are caught, most are not, so thousands of uninspected-and frequently sick and terrified-birds enter the companion bird trade each year. When the Novelty Wears Off When the birds who seemed so cute and lovable in pet stores turn out to be noisy, messy, and demanding of people’s attention, many are later abandoned, and few live out their natural life spans. About 85 percent of parrots are resold, given away, or abandoned within two years of being purchased. If they are ignored, they suffer in isolation and may become even noisier, more aggressive, or more despondent. Caged companion birds are typically not native to the areas where they reside. They cannot be released simply by opening a window and letting them fly away (which would be considered a crime of abandonment in most states). Without the proper climate, food sources, and habitat, escaped or released captive birds become prey for free-roaming cats and wildlife or are doomed to suffer lingering deaths because of exposure, starvation, or injuries. Responsible rescue groups, animal shelters, and sanctuaries can only place or care for a small percentage of these unwanted birds. To complicate matters further, some alleged “sanctuaries” are actually thinly disguised breeding colonies or hoarding situations in which birds are housed in extremely crowded conditions, receive minimal care and attention, and may even be sold back into the pet trade. If you or a friend have a lot of time and resources and remain determined to have a bird companion, please adopt a homeless one from a shelter or rescue group, but only after fully researching their dietary, behavioral, and other needs. You are in for a great deal of work! Buying birds from pet shops contributes to a horrible cycle of disease and abuse, so to appreciate birds without buying and caging them, consider creating your own backyard sanctuary. 2/16//2018
Carol Wade this information is very valuable, thank you. Be sure to post this on bird videos with more views so more people can see this. I am glad people like you are here, people who care deeply about animals and caring properly for them.
Will you shut up?
Nice.
lol! I’ve been catching mice in my house with a humane trap and while they’re in there waiting for me to release them in the woods, they make that vibrating sound. I’ve never actually seen them do it, though. I just hear it
Lol! Me too Krista, sorry I'm just seeing your comment now, how did the release go? (If you were able to do it) I currently have 8 (yikes, I know!), living in a 5ft X 3ft terrarium, or the Mouse Condo, as we refer to it as. I have one little guy that really likes an empty Cheerios box and is always in there, drumming away.
@@katmac8743 I did the same thing with a few mice. They only lived a year though even though I treated them well. They were always sweaty. I think they get stressed out being in a cage.
Male and Female looked the same How can you tell the different between male and female?
Male and female don't look the same, males' heads are more black and females' heads dark gray. But also,only male robins sing. Actually, they can have much better songs than this. What is interesting is the sprinkle of white on his lower breast. Probably all his close family relatives share this, as unusual white markings on robins tend to run in families.
BabyBBB01 he asks them .
The males are a brighter orange underneath
Hey! It been 9 months ago I haven't logged into my UA-cam channel so today I logged into my UA-cam channel I saw your reply about the male and female robin, Thanks for your reply
It wakes me up every morning
The Robin where I live sings a much prettier song with a warble. However, this is still better than Robins in the UK, etc. They sound nothing like the North American Robin, which I love , and the brilliant red Cardinal song, also. Other birds screech, and that's not relaxing. : ) This is the first time I found this, and I'm sorry it's SO short. August 10, 2017
So glad to know the truth behind this. Makes so much more sense than imagining a mouse buzzing some other way (orally or something).
They do this ehen they are alarmed
Yes, it's a possible reaction as well as a response.
definitely! I heard one running in my ceiling, so I hit the ceiling, and it started drumming like crazy.
We caught some house mice like this as well and have them in a cage. Going to sleep one night, we heard them drumming too. We thought they were chewing on cardboard, but when we shined a flashlight on them, sure enough, one was drumming. I have never heard of mice doing that.
Thank you so much! This noise has been driving me crazy. We have caught a number of mice, but every once in a while we get this buzzing sound. I thought we had some strange space creature or something! Thanks for the explanation.
Wow, they must be determined little buggers lol. They are so agile too, I caught one and put it in a box and I can't believe how high they can jump!
Wow this is the noise I've heard in my drop ceiling in the basement! There have been mice up there and I would heard this weird sound and there hear something scurry across... now I know how they made that strange sound.
I believe it is a form of communication. We have them at our house right now (sorry guys, but you're moving out! I have no-kill traps, so there!) and they seem to drum back and forth.
Yeah why do they do this?
I am raising some baby white-footed mice and they're almost ready for release now. They've been doing this drumming more often as they get older. When I played your video near their enclosure, they drummed immediately, as if in response. Very cool. Thanks for posting the video.
How about that? I was watching one of my white-footed mice and heard that sound. I tried to figure out how she was making it. I kept watching the tail, but it wasn't the culprit. House mice rattle their tails when they feel threatened and I think white-footed mice do too, but this time she must have been drumming! :D
