Hunting

March 25

2025:

A red-tail hawk stares down from her perch
In March, bare trees leave few options for being discreet.
She’s hunting — deal with it.

2026:

A robin rests on a snow-covered fence.
Her voice fills the morning air — she wants the world to know: “I’m here!”
But, her hunt for worms is tough in the snow, no matter how early she is.
