A couple of weeks ago there was a spectacular display which unfortunately I missed since I was driving at the time but I did catch this lesser event on camera. This type of atmospheric event is not the same as the solar spike which occurs on the sun's surface. I've also posted a few more Sharp-shinned Hawk photos. The Black-capped Chickadees were taunting the raptor from the relative safety of the rose bramble. I say relative safety because the hawk will fly right through it! I do wish this magnificent bird well but I'm hoping it will visit elsewhere for awhile. The last photos in this series are of the Sandhill Crane from Rhodes Corners this morning.
