Nature, you pretty cool sometimes.

Went for a hike today and happened upon this Red Tailed Hawk who had apparently just nabbed a big fat black squirrel. At first glance I dismissed it as a sculpture, then did a double take like "holy shit thats real!".

 

Not sure if he couldn't carry the squirrel off because it was too big, but he let me snap a good Twenty or Thirty pictures of him just sitting there chilling, literally like 3 feet away. One of the coolest things I've ever seen in my 20+ years as an avid Outdoorsman.

Weird timing. Walking thru the back part of my property this morning, my boy and I heard the loudest hawk scream I've ever heard. Sounded fake. A large bird flew around for a couple minutes squawking, screeching, whatever you call that unique sound.
