Festivities and a baby hawk!

The weekend festivities turned out nicely. Thanksgiving with friends was most excellent. Good food, good conversation, much fun! FTW!

Today is rainy and drab but I’m in a good mood because I’ll be taking a trip starting Wed for 10 days. YAH! It’s an excellent way to end this crap year of 09.

Today a juvenile Sharpshinned Hawk came to visit on the feeder. Here is a semi-blurry pic of him (I had to use lots of zoom):

Don’t know why he decided to pick up his right foot like a freaking flamingo… Hey, I guess even baby hawks gotta try out alternative lifestyles!! LOL
