Reason for a Change-Mitch’s Blog

Walking through the woods in the old crescent is a great relief from windowless office, computer based work. Today I heard a loud bird caw, not a crow, but a preditor. I looked up and around and saw a small to medium hawk land on a barren branch 60 feet up. As I watched, it became apparent he/she was eating something, as the bird’s head would go down to the feet on the branch, then pull upward, and I could see bits of fur or feathers float away in the wind each time. I was totally engrossed with watching this brunchen scene, when much to my surprise, high in trees, just a few feet from the hawk, a hummingbird flew into sight, hovored as only they and bees can, and then moved on. Wow, amazing what you can see and hear, even in town.
