While trudging to the far end of the field at Paramount Ranch, CA to put
out the highstart, Isaw what I thought was another of the local, string
collecting, squirrels sitting on its dirt porch. Nothing unusual here
except it did not scurry into its hole as I approached. As I got closer
I could tell it was actuallya red-tail hawk patiently waiting for its
breakfast to die so it could let go with its talons.
I backe off an flew my fiathful X440 electric for twenty minutes or so
suring which the hawk ate and flew off in one of the many thermals at
the field. Yet another chance to bird watch in this sport.
