It was an interesting weekend with Flaco.

Saturday as unseasonably warm and it brought out lots of runners and bikers. This brought out lots of folks who stopped to see Flaco. It was hot enough that Flaco needed to do some gular fluttering.

On Sunday, it was rainy and cold. As Flaco has done on previous days with bad weather, he flew out early, went north to trees overlooking the construction site, but then went to Nutter’s Battery for a few minutes. But he quickly made his way back to the compost heap and started to hunt. He even chased an American Woodcock!

I needed to leave to cook dinner, but I returned after a few hours. While I was gone, he caught a Brown Rat and ate it. I arrived after he was done eating. He perched on various around the construction site. After a week where it almost impossible to track him, it was nice to be able to watch him until late in the evening.
