hawk


Not the very best of images - but an extremely handsome hawk - I think a Cooper's Hawk - spotted on our morning walk.  I'm afraid that they make a practice of eating Little Birds around here (though I saw one of this pair, the other day, with a mouse in its claws, and it's very welcome to all that it can eat of them).  I suspect it of being perched on a rock at this particular moment because it was busy tearing off a head or swallowing entrails, but I can't prove it ... no corpse.
