All my fish are hunkered down at the very bottom of my pond which is
3+ feet deep. One of my shubunkins is missing and I noticed their terrified behaviour in mid day. I don't believe it is racoons because my pond walls are very steep and they can't get the fish because they sleep on the bottom at night (they have ripped up plants in shallow areas though). I have never seen a herron in my neighborhood or at my house and cats don't hang around the pond but there is a kestrel that kills small birds in the area and it roosts occasionly in a large tree near my pond. People tell me that kestrels don't go after fish but is this true?? Eagles pull out large fish on nature shows and eagles are not water birds so could'nt a kestrel/small hawk do the same to a small fish?. Has anybody had experience with a fish killing kestrel or small hawk? I believe that the attacks took place on my fish during the day and I have never seen a racoon around here during the day. |
