The Hawk Attacks

It is really amazing how the Hawk gets through the pond defenses. I have six stryofoam floats covering almost the total surface of the large pond and still he comes hunting. Obviously he is successful or he wouldn't keep coming back. In the first photo, he is surveying the defenses and in the second he is flying away with a Goldfish in his claw. It was certainly a sad day for the Goldfish who he grabbed from under the protection. I would love to get a photo of how he dives through the coverage and emerges with a Goldfish. Better luck next time.
