GOTCHA!! The real Question is Who Got Who: Returning from shopping yesterday and turning into my street I noticed out of the corner of my eye what appeared to be a hawk in distress.

Returning from shopping yesterday and turning into my street I noticed out of the corner of my eye what appeared to be a hawk in distress. After stopping I could see that he was all wrapped up with a Black
Snake. I only had my iPhone with me and only time for a quick snap as cars were approaching behind me.
Don't know how the struggle finally turned out but my money would be on the hawk.

Thanks for looking in and commenting Bob. I agree, he looked like he could handle the situation, but he was pretty tangled up.

Thanks Jim, it was a real quickie as I was in traffic and couldn't stop for long. Surprised it came out as well as it did.

I'd put my money on the hawk also as it doesn't seem to be all that concerned.
