It was drying its wings and giving itself a shake. The Brown Hawk-Owls here are extremely aggressive, and the crows seem to have learned their lesson well — even perched in such an open spot, not a single crow comes near. Last year at fledging time, a juvenile crow wandered into this pair's territory, and a single male Brown Hawk-Owl drove off five crows. ^^;
