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.

We have a pair of red tail hawks that have a cam on them every year.
They have 2-3 chicks a year and we watch them grow up and go out on their own each season, so cool.
It's really nice to watch now that they put an HD camera in

They have four eggs in their nest as of the 21st, going to be interesting to see if all four make it, that would be a first for these two hawks
