Observing the Nature

This post is a modified revisit to November 9th 2016.

From my kitchen window I can see a pergola where my husband feeds the birds.

A couple of days ago there he was,  sitting on the pergola - a northern goshawk!

This  time he had no catch and was a bit smaller than last time.

Last time (October 2016) I got really frightened for the goshawk bumped straight
to my kitchen window grabbed with  a wood pigeon - dead of course. 

Looking from the window I saw the hawk sitting a bit stunned because of the impact.

After a few minutes it flew away with its catch.

I live a half an hour from the centre of Helsinki, so this is no wilderness.

But beside my house there is a small woods, very dense with old spruces etc.

I think the hawk lives there and keeps an eye on the small birds.

My garden is absolutely lifeless, like after a nuclear catastrophe. 

All hundreds of sparrows, great tits and black birds are hiding. No bird at sight.

It feels quite awkward & odd. I wonder how many days it takes until they return?

I don't know if this is any Gartenglück, but I'll link

to Loretta's and Wolfgang's nice meme.
