Now that I built Bluebird boxes and maintain a habitat for them, they come back every year. The hard part is getting a good picture of one. Got one last night.

This evening I went to feed horses and I hear all this noise. This large bird was in the barn and I couldn't get it out. Up in coupola I have a fan so I tried it on-off a few times, garden hose, alarm sireen. I had drive through doors open and finally flew out. Is it a hawk?View attachment 3189846View attachment 3189847View attachment 3189848View attachment 3189849

My vote would be a peregrine falcon .

They like berries. Got this shot back in the fall. There were a dozen of them coming and going to this branch. Was tricky to catch one at just the right point in the hover as they put the brakes on.

Cabbage?
It just grew on it's own. Huge leaves.

Looks more like collards to me. Hard to tell what that top is doing. Cabbage generally has a head forming by now. Unless its a chinese cabbage, then all bets are off..

I agree with part-time, the leaves look more like collard greens than cabbage. Mine that I let go wintered over and sent seed heads up, which it looks like yours is doing. Did you not grow collards?

We grew some things in containers, collard greens may have been one. It could be the seed got mixed in with something else planted, but it survived over winter then grew.
