Monday we went to work on the new house. As we were walking up to the front door one of the kids spotted this huge hawk in the oak tree above us. The picture doesn't do him justice he was at least 18" tall. And if you look closely you can see a squirrel tail hanging over the branch. He was very regal and majestic and sat there for quite some time with his prey.
When our friends the Davis's went to Petsmart to adopt a cat the lady doing the adoptions told them they could not let the cat outside.(she sits there every week in her moo moo gown and slippers) They asked why and she said "Oh, you never know, an owl or hawk might swoop down and take it away"
We thought this was quite humorous. But, right on moo moo lady this hawk could have easily carried off a kitten. (Maybe not the Davis's cat Texas, that cat is so big a tow truck might have a hard time) Hopefully Izzy and Webster are big enough now to fight over this hawk once we move in.
