The other day while driving to work, I saw two crows chasing a hawk. I took a little time at a stop sign to watch (no one was behind me). The crows chased the hawk to a tree, where the hawk settled while the crows kept circling and dive bombing. I didn't have binoculars to identify what kind of hawk, but it was interesting to watch. It's theoretically NOT nesting season for crows in California yet, so I'm not sure if they were defending a nest or just generally keeping the hawk away from the trees where they like to roost and nest.
