just when you thought it was safe to go outside !!! in total amasement for the past few days i have witnessed a falcon fly onto my property not more than twenty feet from me sitting in my swing and snatching up young robin hatchlings from tree limbs and zooming away to the nearby woods with them .. even seen it grab a parent robin in mid flight .. i guess it has hatchlins also .. i have seen skeletons of various critters on fencelines before and folks have told me thats where birds of prey sometimes take their catches .. they impale them on a fence barb and eat them ..
