Animals Just Trying To Hide In Plain Sight

Why aren’t birds gathering at my feeding spot? Oh, it’s because this soggy-looking hawk is surveying the scene from the lamp post above. 

Two squirrels, and the hawk as well, are trying to avoid the intrusive human and his dog. The squirrels are also trying to avoid the hawk’s attention. One squirrel is trying to stay motionless on the right side of the pole, more or less hidden from the hawk. The other squirrel is scrambling up the pole directly under the hawk - a difficult place to reach.
