A raptor makes a good living in this community ... Hiding in the Sun's glare , carefree , riding the Spring air .. Diving into unknown brush and circumstances for their next meal , or laden with one of my chickens flying across the cornfield ! Waiting at the tip of the tallest Pine for a hen with a lot on her mind ! Eyeing my prize gobblers like easy pickins', turkey jerky waiting to be plucked like ducks in a barrel .. The Red tails die young over my homestead , not from old age or gunfire nor trap or 'guaranteed brew' from a hawkers brown bottle ! The Red'uns on this farm die from obesity wearing out my layers like there's no tomorrow !
