The hawk is awesome, your garden photos are amazingly inviting (are all those really in bloom right NOW?) and your grandson is just precious! And he really seems to have decent form...the way he's holding that club!

(nothing new here :) I'd love to see a hawk landing to my backyard.<BR/>But, are you really sure we can call its breakfast as a "snake"?<BR/>That looked more like an earthworm to me.<BR/>Nice post though! :)ilterocktivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08013562604101137990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-25159398105500365972008-01-15T03:20:00.000-05:002008-01-15T03:20:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.ilterocktivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08013562604101137990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-40970599992646467772008-01-14T16:34:00.000-05:002008-01-14T16:34:00.000-05:00Great shots.

I agree with Sophie. That snake was most certainly his intended target when landing on the ground. Very cool getting to see a pictoral of the capture and the meal.Nathan Talbothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17040487367017510127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-68369639979231826882008-01-13T23:26:00.000-05:002008-01-13T23:26:00.000-05:00Thanks for visitng my blog!

I'm in Sunset Gardening Book's Zone 23.<BR/>I've never been one to be squeamish so the hawk's breakfast photos were fascinating for me, especially since in my opinion the only good snake is a dead snake.Willowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02912030095491960175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-52607105490278918842008-01-13T23:17:00.000-05:002008-01-13T23:17:00.000-05:00Did your grandson score a birdie?

When he landed, his talons grabbed, then he looked around to make sure it was safe before eating.SophieMaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09396958301555933308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-12506512907407491542008-01-13T21:37:00.000-05:002008-01-13T21:37:00.000-05:00I don't know for sure about the amounts hawks eat....I don't know for sure about the amounts hawks eat.

I am certainly not a hawk expert, but I did do some quick reading. Apparently it all depends on what type of hawk it is, the gender, and the season. Females tend to eat more than males.
