Observation details
I glanced out the kitchen window, only to see a tiny bundle of feathers perched atop one of the biggest dead trees!! My breath was taken. I grabbed my camera. And there, peering this way and that, shifting for comfort, was a wonderful little Hobby!!! These are exceptionally rare vagrants to our land; this was only the second one ever, and the first in at least fourteen years!!! Eventually it leapt into the air, catching a thermal... and then it was gone!!
