Hovering hunter
On a morning walk at Commonwealth Lake, I noted these house sparrows who would jump off the grass and hover for a few seconds, then settle again on the grass. They'd move a little on each hover, covering a little ground along the way. Sometimes, they'd achieve success and come back down with their prey. This one has had some success, but is obviously going for more!
