Once while in my stand, I watched a red tailed hawk chase a squirrel up, then downa tree, in a spiral fashion. I didn't even know a hawk could flythat way! It was awesome. Anyway, the hawk perched, watched the squirrel run across the ground, and snatched him up. Then, and this is the strange part, hid the squirrel under a bush, and flew off. I didn't see him come back either. It was strange.
