Well, the other day, it was really nice outside and I hadn't let the gerbils have their daily excersise yet. I decided to put them in their running enclosure outside on the back deck while I watched them. They had a blast, running around and sniffing the fresh air - until the hawk came. I heard the hawk and looked up and saw it circling around the deck a 100 feet in the air. Then, I looked at the gerbils - they were standing still and started thumping. Then I picked up Burkie and her ears were straight up and her eyes were buldging. The hawk must have knew that maybe he could get some tasty gerbils for dinner lol. I haven't put them outside lately, but will soon. ;D

Lol, poor things must've been terrified!! I daren't do that with mine, namely that I have no pen and that the older gerbils (I wouldn't dare to put the youngesters in) are terrified of everything outside their cage
