Mother Nature at it's finest....

So yesterday I was chasing Cannon around taking cute pics of him in sunglasses. He was having so much fun! I got a lot of really good pictures of him too! We went outside to greet daddy on his way home from work. We thought that dad would get a HUGE crack up of these little aviator sunglasses.

While we were standing outside, I noticed darling little feathers floating everywhere. I figured that it was a nest of baby birds starting to shed some of their feathers to grow new ones. It almost seemed magical. I looked up at our roof, expecting to see a darling little nest of birds for spring. To my surprise, I got quick reality check. On my roof was a rather LARGE Peregrine Falcon mauling a bird. I realized that the feathers floating all around was not a serene site, but more of the aftermath of a vicious attack. I felt sick to my stomach. I can't believe I witnessed a murder, let alone it took place on the roof of my apartment! I feel bad for the next couple that rents my apartment, because there is a partially eaten bird on the roof still.
