The "gold ring" for me is a hawk swooping in and taking a bird, with me sitting front-row. Nature rocks!

Hawks - When I came this afternoon, two hawks were screaming across our front woods. Beautiful specimens of nature, high and wild. Nature is His present to we mortals. To be enjoyed by all. (We feed those gorgeous gifts, too.)

We've seen the same thing happen, we refer to the feeder in the front yard as the "birdie cafeteria", sparrows sometimes get snatched mid-bite. Several times I've not seen any birds feeding at their stations and looked up to see a rd-tailed hawk circling the yard, they are beautiful in flight.

The "gold ring" for me is a hawk

Yea, I've got a hawk around too. Looked out my front window yesterday just as he went closely swooping by. I went outside and checked the side and back of the house but evidently he flew off hungry...... Nevertheless, it was pretty cool to see him......
