"our" hawks

our photographer friend dropped by his pictures of "our" hawks the other day. our friend said the light was flat and wasn't pleased with his work, but what a treat to see up close these amazing creatures we watch soar over our yard. graham particularly loves to screech at them and watch their coming and going from the nest in the yard behind ours.
not sure if this is mom or dad, but the mocking bird is dive-bombing with fervor

the chicks are growing up and have been flapping around the nest, testing out their wings


adult and a robin



we are so thankful for this special creation-gift to enjoy even in our small city yard!
