Someone has planted a tree in your yard many years ago
If you mean in measurements, it is inches, feet, then yards.
No
It means that it's looking for food, or perhaps for something else.
Yes it will, I just had a cat (not mine) get attacked in my front yard last night (and I live in the city). They are really vicious, it was a very gruesome sight, ate its whole head. 3 vultures were out this morning finishing the job. So definately, yes it will, keep your cat inside if at all possible.
i found this hawk in my back yard making a nest in a pine tree
A hawk that might steal chickens out of a farm yard is called a Chicken Hawk. Actually there are 3 or 4 different types of hawks depending on the farm's locality:Cooper's HawkSharp-shinned HawkRed-tailed HawkRed-winged HawkEach hawk looks different, so you would have to identify the hawk in your locality and go from there.A hawk that might steal chickens out of a farm yard is called a Chicken Hawk.

An animal "at large" is an animal that is not contained or restrained by the owner. It does not have to be roaming or encroaching on other property to be at large. At large means roaming freely. Unless the rooster is caged - it is at large. If it is free - even if it stays in the owner's yard but has the ability to leave the yard if it decides to - then it is at large. If it's wings are clipped or other measures taken so that it physically can not climb, jump or fly over a fence, and it could only get out of the enclosure by accident, then it would not be at large. Compare it to a pet dog which is allowed to roam free in a fenced yard (not at large) and could only escape if the gate is accidentally left open or if it digs out. It can reasonably be expected to stay in the yard. Once it escapes it is at large. Being loose in an unfenced yard, even the most well trained dog that comes when you call is still at large.

One yard is exactly equal to three (3) feet or thirty six (36) inches or a little over 0.9 metres.Naturally if you like to be silly then it depends on whether you have large or small feet and of course whether you have a small yard or a very large yard. For instance a small girl in a large garden will have many more feet to the yard than a large man would have in a small garden.
In earth-moving or landscaping terms (which is where the term yard as in volume comes from) 1 yard is actually an abbreviation for 1 cubic yard.
If you mean 1/36 of a yard then it is 1 inch
