I was looking out at the backyard this afternoon and saw a bunch of birds flying into the orange tree, it looked like they wanted to hide. Then I went to the kitchen.
Marvin called me to come back and look outside, there was a hawk sitting by the handrail and he had just caught a bird and had him between his claws!
I hurried to take my camera and took a picture from the inside so it's not too clear, but if you click on it and make it bigger you can see the poor little bird :(
The hawk looked at me directly like daring me to do something, when I opened the door, he flew away still clutching the bird.
I have at times seen feathers on the grass and now I know why!

Wow what a powerful photo!
You have such a great birdlife in your backgarden. I do hope my favourite ones are still there?
Wow! That's cool and disturbing all at once. Nature is fierce. Nice picture. Because of the handrail, the hawk had a place to rest after catching his dinner.
