While it was shocking to see, she and her bf witnessed a bald eagle slam a large owl to the ground and attack it they ran outside and the eagle took off, the owl was still alive so they put it in the old dog house incase it was just stunned but, it died over night so they buried it. There are wild rabbits all over the place, I have to stop the car many times just driving down the long dirt road as to not run over them, don't know why the Eagle went after the Owl and do not know why the large owl was out and about during the day but, the moment she told me my mind went straight to the symbology of it all. Eagle taking out the Owl.

So when a hawk feather lands in my yard and I take it in, put it on the table till someone tosses it out, is against the law?
I do obey the law, not imbecilc ones. They lied about DDT, so I don't believe their bird counts either. Like no birds are killed by windmills, but they are.
No one kills hawks for decor. Usually a road kill or natural death only.
There's a hawk just above the dam right now in a clump of feathers in the road.. bad timing!
We have nesting great blue herons, turkey vultures and hawks near and above the dam, as well.
Was in Cherokee, NC today...everyone should see that landscape at least once. NOT Gatlinburg!
Love the birds!
