This morning I witnessed a repeat of the predacious cardinal episode. A
male cardinal swooped down from a sweetgum near the back porch and took
a female hummer from near the hummingbird feeder. He took that sucker
right out of midair and flew off with it. I lost sight of them about
twenty five yards away when he went into the trees. Seems that this is
not that unusual.
