I was driving in Jefferson County, KY the other day and say a hawk (it wasn't a
red tail) circling a large flock of rock pigeons. They were swirling around in
a ball, just like fish in the ocean do while their predator waits for the right
moment. I didn't get to see him dive into the ball to get his dinner,
however.
This is probably typical behavior for a hawk, but I've never seen it and I
thought it were really neat to see.
