Loud horn at a golfing event? Sorry, but I would believe that those would be controlled.

And most of the “common birds” don’t respond to waving arms or yells. Ever tried scaring away a flock of pigeons or crows with just noise? You have to be on top of them before they leave. (And the hawk was in a tree).

I have written a couple of books about birds.

Not a single word of your statement is true.

As for the loud horn....hey, on golfing events I’m in the dark. But I’m thinking couldn’t they have stopped the thing, obtained a loud horn from somewhere, and somehow chased off the hawk? Don’t they have provisions for things that interfere with a game?

You can make fun of me for that question but at least I’m not saying nonsense and fawning it off as truth.

Please do not interpret my non-response to any more comments directed to me as agreement with the commentary. Sometimes, as I have discovered in five years as a prolific commenter on this forum I have learned that some people just like to bait and bait and at times it’s best to state your piece and walk away.

i have stated my piece and will comment no more.
