Song - Hawks and Doves by Neil Young
Several days ago I was sitting at my desk working when I heard a rather loud bonk on my window directly in front of me. From the bushes below the window a rather large bird emerged and wobbly flew up onto the pergola and sat for about five minutes.
A Cooper's Hawk that had missed his mark (the bird feeder full of birds hanging in front of my window) and bashed into the window instead of grabbing a song bird.
He seemed OK other than a little shaken and flew off into the oak trees above.
I doubt he will be back here very soon!
"Listen to the wind
it talks
Listen to the silence
it speaks
Listen to your heart
it knows."
