Yesterday, it rained on and off all day. During one particularly long storm with lots of thunder and lightening, I happened to look out the back and saw this hawk sitting up in the old snag. I had to photoshop it to make it brighter. Don't know what kind it is, but handsome bird regardless!

Looks rather falcon like, don't you think?? Might be a falcon for all I know..

The dogs were restless and wanted to go for a walk. They like to stand or sit in front of me and stare....as if I control the weather and if they stare long enough, I'll do something about that rain and we can all go outside! Well, at least somebody thinks I can work miracles. LOL!

Magic doing his version of a stare down...
