Ok so you know I'm a crap photographer but I had to share this one. Can you see the brave little Chickadee immediately to the right of the Red-tail?  My son and I were watching the hawk devour a squirrel at Ashbridges Bay when we noticed a Black-capped Chickadee fly into the tree. He flitted from branch to branch as he sounded his alarm call, gradually coming closer to the hawk until he was about a foot away!  Amazing to watch.

LOL, looks like the chickadee is giving the hawk a piece of his mind.
