Good call!! I live in Portland, Oregon. I don't *think* there's much out here? Not like in Cali where I used to live where those birdies are everywhere. I'll have to research. And out of paranoia I would stay very very close to her I'm sure. But I'm sure predatory birds are so fast and quiet I wouldn't even see it coming.

Okay! We have a very large backyard that we *at most* mow a few times when it's spring and we don't treat our yard with anything so I believe we're good. Good call!
