It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood


The Princess and I set off for the park this morning, we heard an unusual bird call. I scanned the trees and directly in front of us was a hawk that had killed a bird and had it pinned down to a treebranch. I whipped out my trusty cell phone for a pic, and you can see a faint outline of the hawk in the tree. The unusual call was a bird that was not happy the hawk chose it's spouse/parent/friend for breakfast. We made sure not to get too close, watched a minute and went on our way to the park.
Upon our return about a half hour later the hawk was finishing breakfast and had left a great mess of feathers for the neighbors. The unhappy bird was still berating the hawk with great fervor.
A beautiful day, indeed!
