Early morning hunt

I was strolling listening for bird songs, turned right on a path and there in the bushes was pal hawk on the prowl. Ground hunting. The squirrels know how to scurry and the little birds know what to do, but that didn't stop this young hawk from "running" all over the area. Eventually the hunt continued down in the Oven. Something may have been snared, but I didn't see a catch.
