Hawk Greets the New Year

The new year starts as the old year ended with the Hawk visiting the pond. First he is landing on the top of bamboo poles we used to support our tomato plants. From that height he can see down into the pond at all the juicy Goldfish and then dive. I hope the Styrofoam provides some protection for the Goldfish and a nice rest stop for the Hawk. I haven't caught a picture of him with a Goldfish in his claws so maybe he hasn't made it through the defenses yet.
