Love these stories. Several years ago my wife and I were leaving Lake Merced park in San Francisco (very urban park, but lots of great birds). We were pulling out of our parking space in the lot adjacent to the park and a large flock of pigeons that had been on the ground all took to the sky at once. They flew right over our car and a red tail swooped down maybe 15' above and in front of our car and snatched a pigeon out of the air. It kept going as if it was the easiest thing on earth. I will never for get the agility and audacity!
