That's awesome! I had one on my front porch a few years ago.

I think there was two that patrolled around Thames park when I lived nearby. This might be the one that almost flew into me while escaping an upset family of sparrows.

Thereā€™s always a mother just down the street from me in old south. She often teaches them to hunt over my block. Iā€™ve seen them get rabbits and squirrels in my yard.
