Patty saw it happen. A blur between our parked cars.
Puff. And a Dark-eyed Junco was no more.
She had gone out on the deck to shake out a floor mat, startling the birds feeding there.
Focused on Patty, they didn't see the Coopers Hawk, which choose this time to strike.
Over in an instant. Nothing left but a scattering of feathers on the rocks.
