The Hawk landed on our chimney with something in its claws...

I especially like the expression in the first photo. Great catches.

I like it. Any ideas on what sort of hawk this is?

Great series... whatever it was, it is no more. Natural selection on the wing...

I'm not certain that it is a former loyal subject. Unless it's a wing devoid of feathers, that really looks like a hind leg of Mr. Bunny in that last pic...

Great series. It looks like a skinned pigeon with 2 or 3 tail feathers still there. :)
