Usually only finding new mates when one of the other mates die. Also while together the mates will defend the same nesting territory for many years. The main threat to the nesting is the Great Horn Owl. The owl begins its mating and nesting before the hawk, so this is why the hawk defends its old nesting.

First, Chinese Americans preserve their ethnic identities through holidays. One of the biggest holidays is the Chinese New Year. The Chinese New Year is different from the regular New Years in that it relies on the moon cycles instead of the western calendar, so it falls on different days each year. There is a lot of preparation that goes into the Chinese New Year. People start cleaning their houses and decorating them with spring couplets on the twentieth day of the twelfth moon.
