I have not had much luck on the few outings I have managed this fall
here in the bluegrass area. I am bummed to hear the migration is
slowing. I did have an interesting sighting yesterday on my way to Raven
Run here in Fayette Co.
 

As my wife will attest, I spend most of my time driving looking at
something other than the road before me. I was looking left when I saw a
Red-tail, wings curled back, zeroed in on me. As I passed out of its
line of flight, the hawk sailed grille high across the road and slammed
talon first into the fence/hedge on the other side the road. I was
surprised my presence wasn't enough to interfere with it's objective,
and couldn't help but wonder the outcome if I had been seconds slower. 

 

No the hawk didn't catch what ever it was.
