3/3 It finally flew up into a tree and gulped the prey into its (see bulge in throat) « crop ». New word for me. Didn’t realize hawks gulped things whole. A last resort when pressed for time and trying to avoid losing its kill. It then flew off with this in its gullet.

2/3 Then the hawk tried to discreetly squirrel peg-leg walk away, probably casually whistling. I’ll just be heading out…

2/3 It tried mantling for a bit to hide its catch but the turkey vultures started descending so it decided to make an ungainly get-away with its prey.

1/3 Red-shouldered hawk really putting its back into each plucking bite of its ground squirrel breakfast
