Cooper's Hawk with fresh lunch
When I came home from the store today, I parked in my driveway and was walking around the front of my truck to the gate, when all of a sudden the air above my head exploded in feathers, everywhere. I ducked in time as the hawk landed in the road with his lunch struggling in his talons. He sat there till his quarry quit moving, then he flew up and over to the grassy area to the side. I went and got my camera and took these photo's. I told my wife that after he was done eating, I would go take pics of the remains, well let me tell you.....after he left, a big ol' alley cat came and got the rest. The circle of life completed....NGE
