Hi Birders,
This morning my wife and I heard a thump against the kitchen window. When we
went to the dining room door to look out a Sharpie took flight just to the
left of the outside steps. He was carrying a Red-winged Blackbird in his
talons. Evidently the hawk swooped in and in its haste to get away the
Red-wing flew with some force into the window, making the Sharpie's job much
easier.
