Red-Tail

I was startled by the cawing of two large crows today

As I blissfully soaked in the warmth of the sun and its unexpected rays

Cawing out their first reproach, I turned around to see

The sight of two big blackbirds circling round as thieves would be

What was the cause and nature of this unexpected rouse?

I looked above and saw a red-tail hawk sailing just below the clouds

Heading right in my direction on a current it did flee

soaring high, swirling wide and seeking out a nearby tree
