Bird Siting

Today while I was sitting in traffic I saw a predator. 

In the size of a bird.

At first I wasn't sure if it was a falcon or a hawk but upon more research I found it was a falcon.

I watched as it swooped down with precision to snatch what it was hunting.

At my angle it was hard to tell if the prey was dead or alive.

But it was something you couldn't away from to see it fly away before it settled in a tall tree branch to eat.

The sun illuminating the feathers as it glided through the sky. 

In that moment I thought as easy as I believed it was to be a bird, I am now finding that their life is not quite what it seemed.

They have to hunt for their food daily and find a dry warm place to sleep.

Everyday is a struggle. 

Some things are not what they seem.

Stay safe out there && as always, I appreciate ya!
