Random photos: Got anything interesting, unique, strange?

Couple days ago the smoke was very thick and this guy flew into the house. I think it's a peregrine falcon.

Looks like a Cooper's hawk . . . . it's in the Accipiter group of birds of prey. Long tail, rounded wing tips, birds of this group are ferocious bird killers. Buddy hunts with his Goshawks

This was a couple years ago. Might’ve been hunting frogs in the drained pool. There were 3 or more flying around the neighborhood in the spring this year.
 
I love predatory birds. Of course, if one comes after me, I might change my mind. This little guy has been living around here for a few years now. Right after I snapped this pic he dropped down and grabbed something. He flopped around on the ground with it for probably 30 seconds and then carried it off.

This kid got kicked off “the voice” show but can certainly sell out a NFL stadium. Morgan Wallen, was a great concert. All the tour and equipment trucks where cool to see.
