Squirrel Jerk(y)

in #photofeed6 years ago

The other day I was shooting a house in an old yet well-to-do part of Columbus, when all of a sudden there was a crash in a tree across the street, and this hawk just wrecked a squirrel's wishes for a relaxing Winter. The hawk then proceeded to fly over to the tree right in front of me, to give me a good view of him man-handling this dead guy. I didn't have a zoom lens, just a 50 on a crop. But he came close enough that I could get a decent shot of him, but wasn't able to get both in a clear view.

lol. that title is classic. nice shot also.

Thanks, ha. It's always nice when you start typing the title and realize it's a pun.

Great shot of the beauty and cruelty of Mother Nature.

Yeah, it was amazing to see in person since he came so close. The workers were worried he'd drop blood all over their new sidewalk ha.
