As I was backing out of my driveway yesterday AM this hawk swooped down over the hood of my car and landed about 30 feet away, He sat in the tree for about 3 minutes, jetisoned his load and took off again.

Haha, that's a great story Rock!
And obviously you were prepared as always to record the event.....including the excreta maxima.
It is a beautiful hawk and you did a great job capturing it.
