Hawk!!

[presspirate]

I ran into a lady while walking my dog last summer, (Ran into....came across sounds better I guess) Who was scanning the sky as she walked her small fluffy animal. She told me that the previous week a hawk had tried to grab her "dog" She said she wouldn't let the dog off the leash anymore. I couldn't help but laugh at the image in my head. One of the coolest things I was able to see was a large bald eagle perched on a soccer goal. I was about 10 feet from him when he took off, and I was amazed at his wing span, and the noise they created.
