This hawk was attacking a Calgary mail carrier so often that Canada Post halted postal service to the area in which it lives. (Submitted by Dawn Dixon)People living in a southwest Calgary neighbourhood can expect to start getting their mail again on Tuesday despite an aggressive family of hawks still being in the area.

Delivery in Bayview was temporarily suspended since Aug. 26.

One hawk in particular was nosediving the local mail carrier.

At one point, the attacks got so bad that the carrier resorted to wearing a bicycle helmet, which the hawk eventually broke.

The hawks were still visible on Saturday, but Adrean Wolvers, spokesman for Canada Post said the mail will be delivered.

"We'll be having a relief employee come out and deliver the mail with a supervisor along with him to observe. At any point if the hazard gets too much, then it will be suspended again," Wolvers said, "but hopefully we can resume delivery next Tuesday."

Last week, provincial fish and wildlife officials said the hawks should be flying south for the winter very soon.

About 150 homes have had their delivery service suspended.
