Default Hawks

Since I posted this thread I have been seeing things. Yesterday I saw a hawk kill a bird in the air. It fell in the street in front of my truck. The hawk then scooped it up and flew away with it. I almost hit the hawk. That brought to mind seeing an eagle dive down from way up and take a large fish from Lake Allatoona. These birds are precision killers and are now protected.They are much better at what they do than we are with our old Parkers. I think I once saw an old Parker ad in which a man was after a chicken hawk shouting "Tarnation". All things considered I guess the little quail has survived pretty well. How much longer I don't know.Gerald
