I unfortunately don't have a shot of it (I went to get my camera, and when I came back it was over) But I did have an interesting sight this moring as I looked out the window to my back patio. Below the patio is a grarled mostly dead crabapple tree that we keep meaning to take down before it falls over and crushes the cars in the driveway (it's short enough and far enough back that the Village tree comission doesn't need to sign off on it, if we want it down, we can take it down whenever we want).
Anyhow I looked out this morning and saw an incredible sight in the tree. On a branch near the top there was a small, and very loud bird of unknown type. Some branches below there was a red-tailed hawk (looked like the male from the pair that nest in the wooded part) . Mr. Hawk was looking up at the bird with what I only can describe as complete bewilderment, as it he could not BELIEVE that a small bird would not only perch so close, but would actually be screaming in his ears. As I said, pity they flew away before I could get back with the camera, that would have made a GREAT caption photo.
