Backyard Hawk

I had found a nest of cardinal eggs, 4 eggs. One day they were there and Momma on the nest. The next day it is empty! Yesterday morning in the trees in my backyard I saw TWO of these Hawks. A couple they are! Then yesterday evening I was able to get this shot of one of them. Now I know why the eggs disappeared and why I have NO bird action at the feeders. Even the Gackles and the blackbirds are gone for now! Can't say I miss those though!
