Normally our front yard birdbath is full of birds splashing around 
around this time, but today I noticed this guy.  No one else came 
around.  After I snapped this pic,he took off and came back with dinner, 
which he ate in the pine tree above the birdbath.  Another bird, since 
there were feathers and what-all flying as he chowed down.  I think this 
is a kite hawk, a royal PITA in our local park (Kite Park), since they 
dive-bomb people walking in the evening.  You learn to wear a cap if you 
don't want stitches.
