Description
It is sad to think that one's life usually involves death and the pain of others. I know! Is the food chain ... the law of the jungle ... the rules of nature ... but I think I may ask: Why should this be so?
Taken today at half past two in the afternoon, in my workplace. He posed for me without any fear. Obviously he was very proud of his prey. his kids will eat this day.
But the kids of the mouse will not see him again.
PW only to improve the exposure of the eye a little

Fantastic capture my friend. how appropriate that I'm listening to Manowar's Die for Metal! that hawk looks like a metal head

The strong will always hunt the weak. It is the law of nature. To be a wolf or a sheep, only man has the choice. Outstanding capture of this proud raptor.

They often bite their prey in the head and they die quickly. That bite is visible in your photo. Few of us will meet such a quick end!

Yes, nature is one of survival, and in a way violent. You captured this very well, Neto.
