Unexpected find on my walk today, a writhing mass of snakes. I think they are garter snakes, were at least four of them.

Spotted this beauty of a Red-tailed Hawk having a meal on a snowbank by Village Gate in Rochester. Parked right in front of him, didn't even see him until I was already pulling in, but he was too focused on food to worry about it. Pretty sure a pigeon was the unfortunate meal.
