Birders of fedi: Can you tell me what the heck these #hawks are up to?

I don't know if they're courting, competing, upset about me entering their area (which is relatively secluded for an urban area), or upset about the bald eagle I later noticed nearby.

I think they only started when I walked into one part of this micro-forest, and stopped when I moved out of it, but I moved because a train was coming through (which might have been the real reason).

This is in Cambridge, MA, USA.

@varx my guess is courting. They aren't acting aggressive or alarmed to my eye.

@wispfox Cool, glad I didn't harsh their vibe. :-)
