It's hard to think that this cute little thing could be so terrifying to other small birds

Is this the Col. Sam one? I haven't seen this guy in months, no matter how many times I go... though I saw one hunting chickadees on the Spit yesterday.

No, this one showed up in my backyard Sunday morning, ( Pickering) and scared the small

Great catch Reg and always nice to see something for the first time.  Just think, you didn't even have to leave home :)
