Stalked up on this younger squirrel in the backyard. First shot somehow missed but the squirrel kept picking around the leaves while I reloaded behind a big cedar. Shot him again, hit the head, he did the flopping kicking thing and a Cooper's hawk swooped down from nowhere and landed in a tree, it was about to take my trophy so I grabbed the grey furball and told the hawk no, this is mine. \:D

I saw a sparrow hawk (kestrel) eating on a bird it caught in the woods the other day. It was picking feathers off one at a time. It took more energy for it to eat that little thing than it got from it.
