The hawk will do best when squirrel does not see it and it flies from tree to catch the squirrel. If the squirrel saw the hawk, then the hawk just a puppy that squirrel can play with it.
That's one BRAZEN gray squirrel. Cooper's Hawks are in the family group of hawks called Accipiters. And two of the others in that family of hawks are the Sharp-Shinned and Goshawk. They are mainly bird hunters especially at feeders during the winter. HOWEVER, that doesn't mean they couldn't nor wouldn't kill this squirrel if need be.
Perhaps. Maybe that explains its brazen attitude -- trying to lure/distract from its young? I hadn't previously realized they mated twice a year. The timing seems right that the fall litter of young could have been nearby.
the fact is! the squirrel will always bbe smarter, they like tormenting the hawk. most birds like crows chase them out! sorry folks your hatred towards squirrels has to stop! it's the males who do the fighting. the tail was up as we know,.
For Pete's sake...landscape mode when filming.
Squirrels love messin’ with these Hawks! I saw another video where a Squirrel was doing the same thing, messin’ with ‘em!
I thought the squirrel was the prey....that squirrel went berserker mode 😂
Every squirrel has it day

Falconer?
@@thefoxoropeza7906 no falcon's are known as long winged these are broad winged hawks.
But if you can't touch him, it makes it really hard to kill them.....
Squirrel version of Extreme Sports.
Check out Red Tailed Hawk v Squirrel - a whole 9 minutes of squirrel winding up a falcon - great fun
I wonder if the squirrel had young nearby.

That or he knows he can easily outmaneuver the hawk on the ground. So he’s also very possibly taunting it.
So lovely
Out of his league and the squirrel knew it .
Did the hawk tear apart the squirrel with it's powerful talons?
Yes, prob a just fledged hawk.
