Heh!

A couple of years ago there was a report of a hawk swooping down and
grabbing an Easter chick("Mr Peep") from the playground of an elementary
school. The pupils watched in horror as the hawk sat atop a light pole and
ate the chicken (yum) while discarding the hard parts.

"Well," said a teacher, "at the least the children learned a lesson about
the 'law of the jungle'."

Sounds a little like Funniest Home Videos where a hawk swooped down into a
back yard and grabbed a pet mouse.

Saw one take a ground squirrel as six of us sat eating lunch at a picnic
table outside the office. Pretty interesting and the squirrels stayed away
for a few days.

So, that would have left you with more scraps to eat
