Beware squirrels there's a new sheriff in town, the Red-tailed Hawk. Last week a juvenile Red-tailed Hawk stopped in an elm tree in the backyard for a gray squirrel meal. This was the first time we saw a Red-tailed Hawk in the yard and we had a front row seat to the carnage. The hawk vigorously pulled apart the squirrel and ate. After a while, crows swarmed in and mobbed it. Eventually the hawk had enough of being harassed and flew off with the squirrel in its talons.

I hate being part of the human SPECIES.
All we do is ruin the EARTH.
Is it evil to overpopulate the earth?
Gay people help control the human population.

Who are we (humans) to think that we're so SPECIAL ?
We're just part of
a BALANCE/PLANET...
We don't have the power
or the right to remove
that balance...
We WON'T remove that balance...
