Hawk 1 : Koi 0

Perhaps it should be Koi -1. I saw this Red-tailed hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) land in the maple tree and went to a different window to investigate. Well the koi was still flapping its tail but the battle was over. The hawk decided to transport the meal away for consumption. Somehow, I'd rather share the pond's koi with a hawk than a great blue heron but the result will be the same.
