I've never been this close to a wild hawk either except for when I worked at a raptor rehabilitation center one summer. When I was growing up we lived on a farm. When I would mow the fields on the tractor, a pair of Red Tails would sit on the fence posts watching me. They'd wait for me to kick up a rabbit, vole or mouse and then glide off the fence and pounce on it. I could get really close to them while on the tractor but never on foot.

Thanks Nic.
I talked to my neighbor this morning when I was leaving for work. He said that the hawk hung around eating that squirrel for another 20 minutes and then flew off with the rest of it. I still think it's really cool that it was comfortable with us standing around it while it ate. Definitely a cool experience.
