To be honest, I was trying to photograph a rooftop icicle. I was playing around with the camera zoom when a distant shadow caught my attention. It was a hawk landing on top of a telephone pole with a pigeon in its grip.
There were people walking around below, and big vehicles scooping up the snow, but no one ever looked up. And so over the next two hours the hawk dined, unbothered, until nothing was left of its dinner.

Wow – good capture (hawk and you!).
It was a very special moment. 😉

The hawk got in the way of your efforts to photograph the icicle but psssst I’m glad it did! 🙂
I saw these in our annex office and was able to maintain my decorum with some effort. Raptor-Lover Girl thanks you! I hope I will be able to buy a print of one or more of these. They are so wonderful. I just love being so close to this bird.
Fantastic captures!
