It was an interesting weekend for yardbirds.  Black-backed Woodpeckers and Gray Jays were among the visitors (the jays have taken over the suet feeder and are just ripping through it), but a very exciting visitor was the Goshawk.  I was pulling into the driveway Saturday afternoon as a Goshawk was closing in on a flock of pigeons in front of the barn (the pigeons nest/roost in the barn).  As they flew past the barn, the gos turned sharply from the main flock and swooped behind the barn, popping up seconds later with a pigeon in her talons.  The gos then continued on into the woods.  What a moment!
