One of the things I have always loved about living in upstate NY is the amazing assortment of raptors we have. Hawks, falcons, and now eagles nesting about a mile from my house. I can sit and watch them soar for hours.
The hawks are some of our finest local poets. They write with their motion rather than words.

Send that hawk to my house please. After the damn squirrels decimated my gerbera daisies, I need some help culling the population.

@silly: I rehabbed an injured baby squirrel two summers ago, so sorry for perpetuating the problem, haha.
