was incredible! Beautiful piece of work.

The video was also amazing. You felt like you could get inside the hawk’s head. Really loved it.

I keep my feeding area in a closed in corner just to discourage hawks hanging around with a different idea of dinner than mine.

30 years after my video, I’m not up to the work of keeping up the feeding area. I set up a platform at a height just under my library window so I could keep bags of birdseed, now shelled peanuts, in a box near the window. I’d just open and scoop several times a day. Then all the opening and closing finally did in the latch and we haven’t gotten the handyman to replace it, so I just set up an outdoor table and tied a small ladder to it under the next window. I drop the food onto the table and around it for the visitors who can’t climb the ladder. Means I can’t sit in an easy chair to be at eye level with the munchers, but I still check them throughout the night.

Glad you like and I appreciate the compliments.

I found this little bird on a sidewalk and after a little bit, got the strength to fly.
