The Waiting Game

On an early morning walk down the lane, I noticed this beautiful Collared Sparrowhawk, waiting for its chance to swoop on an unsuspecting group of young Noisy Miner birds that were absorbed in catching insects around a Banksia bush. It was a perfect illustration of the food chain at work.

As the Sparrowhawk swooped, I turned away, choosing to let nature take its course yet not wanting to witness it happening.
