All Kinds of Awesome

My first post with Windows Live Writer. I was intrigued by the idea of being able to write plug-ins for it.

That's not what is all kinds of awesome though.

While riding my bike through Hollywood Cemetery, a hawk swooped out of the sky and snagged a fat squirrel off the ground and flew off with the squirrel shrieking like a stuck pig.

That is all kinds of awesome.

I don't know what a stuck pig is, but I imagine it sounds really loud, high-pitched and frantic.

  2. its actually the second time i've seen something like that. the first time, in rochester about 10 years ago i was driving under an overpass and a hawk swooped down and snagged a pigeon in mid air. he was so close he almost hit my windshield. didn't lose the pigeon though.

  3. I've seen a bald eagle catch a fish, and I've seen a hawk swoop down and take a hen. All the other hens knew what happened and went insane.
