Hungry Hawk

I was cycling home from work one day a few years ago, and I saw this hawk flying overhead. I stopped to try get a photo. While I was fumbling for my camera, the hawk suddenly fell from the sky and landed on a gopher. After a very brief struggle, the hawk stood and began to eat. It seemed quite content to continue as I crawled closer to within 4 feet of him, which allowed me to get this awesome close up.
