Hawk At The Abandoned Asylum

Century Manor is the last building that remains of the Hamilton Asylum for the insane, that was demolished in the 1980s. It is a gorgeous Victorian building that has been left to rot for decades. Making it a great explore and I had done a documentary style video about it 2 years ago.

A video that now has a false copyright strike on YouTube, rather than appealing that strike I have decided to redo the video, so yesterday I went to do new drone footage of the building and the grounds around it. As the drone approached the building I noticed a hawk perched on an old hydro pole. A hydro pole that the drone got very close to. Worried the hawk would attack the drone, I started to reverse it back away. But the hawk had zero interest in it so I moved in closer and snared snapping pictures. Incredibly the hawk didn't care that the drone was only 10 feet away from it and even feel a sleep while I was snapping away.

Interesting about the hawk, whilst some countries have rules around disturbing wild birds(and nesting seasons), others depend on the common sense of the operator..

That's incredible!

Really is!! Very unexpected

Hello. Happy and blessed day. Beautiful photos, for a moment I thought the hawk was made of wood.
