A funny story.....
Anita and I were driving along a little country road, just enjoying the day when I spotted a cat in running / creeping mode and I said watch out for that cat Anita (she was driving as usual). The cat kept coming and then Anita said, there's one in the road already...... My eyes swiveled back to the road and noted what I thought was a calico colored cat sitting in the road and then back to the other cat. By the time my eyes swiveled back again the one in the road was up and flying! Of course then I realized it was a hawk and up came the camera! We approached very slowly and he flew up onto this branch his peaceful afternoon lunch interrupted by a cat and two crazy humans. Never did see what happened to the cat who thought He was going to have a nice Hawk for lunch! After several miles the road we were on petered out to a dead end and when we returned, the 'possum was still there but both the hawk and the cat had gone their separate ways.
