Nice shot! I’ve been very pleased to see an increasingly wide variety of raptors hovering over our neighborhood in recent years, and am grateful for all the tall trees and gardens (especially my own, can’t wait to get back out there!) that create habitat and food for them. Some people freak out when a coyote walks down the street, but I feel that having wildlife living alongside us is a sign of a healthy ecosystem.
Watch out for your little 8-lb dogs. Or don’t give up hope once they are snatched.

Please do not put rat poison out. When wildlife consumes an animal that has eaten poison- they die. And it carries on for 4-5 generations. Killing an Eagle is a federal offense. Contact Fish & Wildlife for more information.
I got zoomed by a hawk the other day–amazing feeling–
Hope he or she likes squirrels. Maybe it will cut down on the population.
Looking for food? Anybody missing any chicken? Not yet, just wait.
Mine raise quite a ruckus when there is a hawk around. Haven’t lost any to an eagle but a few years ago found a chicken whose throat had been partially slit from some unknown cause – she lived a few days afterward before she died.
That sounds like a neighborhood cat.
WOW, nice shot!
