WOW

I just saw a hawk (some form of goshawk, I think), right outside my living room window, perched in the oak tree in a neighbor's yard that overhangs my barn. He was so beautiful! I am such a nature dork! I sat in awe muttering over what a fantastic bird he was, quietly, and then said "binoculars...binoculars" and reached for them to get a closer look. He puffed up his feathers, did a smidge of preening, and then pooped on the roof of the barn.

And then he flew away.
