A Two Hawk Day

Today is a two hawk day.

Breast feathers puffed out
to soak up the sun
heat very welcome on this frigid morning.

Four brave squirrels share the tree
warmth more important
than hiding from predators.

After a time
the hawk's wings spread wide
and it glides away.

Mere seconds later
another swoops in
to take it's place!

Gifts like these
keep this country girl
sane in the city.

the photo is not mine - it's from photobucket.com
I decided to enjoy the view instead of running to get the camera - more 'in the moment'.
