Day 7 - Hawk

Wow!  Can you believe this pic?  This was taken in my backyard just feet away from our door!  We drove to Indian Lake today since it was so nice out and the sun was shining.  I actually have some very nice pictures of the lake and had intended on posting one for todays project.  But when we got home and I was about to let the dogs outside, this hawk was sitting on top of the bird feeder.  He was obviously looking for "bird" food but not the kind I was leaving!  We have about 4 pairs of Cardinals that come to feed daily along with a pair of doves, finches and other little snow birds.  This hawk hung around for about 20 mintues when I finally decided to let the dogs go.  Evidentally, there was a little snow bird hiding in the tall grass just below the feeder.  The hawk was waiting for the bird to come out of hiding.  No, the hawk didn't eat him (at least not while we were watching)!
