Looks like forced perspective. I think the hawk isn't looking at the little bird, but from our angle it looks like they're face to face, so we assume they are much closer than they are.

I can see how it looks that way... But the size proportions are about right. If anything the little bird is only a few feet in front of the hawk. But I think you're right that the hawk is looking behind the little bird.

They're looking at the bird. The bird is closer to the camera in front of them on a branch.

Keep absolutely still. Its vision is based on movement.

You're right, but they're on a branch right in front of the hawk.
