pics of my town

Those pics are awesome! Even though large bird scare me a little.

Actually, there was some sort of hawk in my yard the other day. My neighborhood has developed a rat problem, and the fact that my idot next-door neighboors leave garbage bags out for days at a time just makes it worse. They now have rats living under their patio. I talked to them about it last summer, when I witnessed a rat carrying A WHOLE PIECE OF PIZZA across my yard from their garbage. But I guess they don't care. I hate them. But I digress.

The other morning, I opened my gate & heard a russling sound. A hawk-like bird took flight (scaring the hell out of me) and as it was flying away, I noticed a body with a long tail hanging from its talons. Yay hawk! At least he's trying to help with the rodent problem.
