| Details: | About 15 feet from the kitchen window - heard some commotion and saw this magnificent hawk swoop down. She grabbed this squirrel and held it right there in this exact position, without moving, for about 3 full minutes. Then she picked up and took that little guy for a joyride in her talons. That must have been fun! If you look closely right at the Hawk's breast, you can see a little bit of that poor squirrel's fur. |
