Any pics showing birds of prey in action?

The other day I was driving down the freeway and watched a hawk drop down off a utility pole and grab something in it's talons and fly off. I couldn't tell what it caught but I am guessing it was a mouse or something of similar size. Not that I like to see things being eaten or killed but it is amazing to see these powerful birds in action. It made me wonder if anyone has pics or a sequence of pics they would be willing to share. Thanks in advance.

Nice pics Jay! I always enjoyed watching the feeders at my grandparents place and looking at the pics on here is making me think I might have to take up a new hobbie . Just what I need is something else to spend $ on.

As a side note, is Hawk Ridge in Duluth a popular spot for you guys in the fall? I went up their once but there were too many clouds to really get much from it.

I've actually never been to hawk ridge. Most of the birds are too far out for photographers to get shots of. If you are a birder looking to observe hawks and add species to your life list its an excellent spot to go.
