The early bird may get the worm

But the hawk gets both of them.
This guy flew across the road just as I was leaving work. He landed in a tree and I didn't notice it at the time, but he was holding a bird. He flew off to another tree, ripped its head off and swallowed it whole. That I noticed.
I feel kind of bad about how many meals I've interrupted in the past couple of days. For me, mostly.
