Haha! John Denver. Showing your age there Randy ;)

[RandyRhoads]

You could tell i'm 22 from that? :D

Hahaha...

[jarich]

Haha, guess that means Im just showing my age then. ;)

Pat pat rub rub then get the hell out of there. Is that your hawk?

[RandyRhoads]

No, it was wild.

Something is still very shady here. I think randy is half hawk.

No, i'm an eagle. So it really was "the eagle and the hawk"

Maybe this is why he was cool. Hahaha.

Nah, still doesn't make sense. In my brain I feel like hawks and eagles should be arch enemies. Your story isn't matching up. Starting to think you added more than just lemon to that corona.

Hahaha... You got me. Maybe he was an escaped pet. The closest place I know of with red tails is still a good 30 miles though.

That seems pretty easy if your a hawk. Maybe its a possibility, or maybe hes just a badass hawk who isn't scared of anything.

Wow this is awesome

Nice video. Another hawk I have seen eating snakes is the Red-shouldered hawk.

Randy, you're like our very own survivor man...

Cool video! A few years ago I saw a hawk eating a rabbit it had caught. My dad found it and recorded it. It didn't really care all that much that we were there. We were standing two feet away, and it was ignoring us. Pretty cool experience. :)

Great video, and good call with the John Denver lol. I have been in numerous positions where I had come across a hawk and its kill, and never once did the hawk leave its kill on my account. They just stare at you and put those enormous wings out and even sometimes say "what what."
