Careful What You Ask For

At Jackson Hole the other day Tom saw a Golden Eagle. In the Base Camp distance he saw a Cooper's and three times a Loggerhead Shrike has visited. For three months Tom has battled the Sharp-shinned almost daily if not several times a day. Since last Sunday morning's still unexplainable encounter it has been seven full days since Tom has seen or heard a Sharp-shinned. While this is exactly the result Tom has been hoping for since Thanksgiving of last and the songbirds seem much more relaxed Tom's got to admit he misses him. Still, should he return some day and again start wrecking havoc among the songbirds, there will probably be a post with the same heading. Tom doesn't understand it either.
