Unbeknownst to me there was a quail in my inner yard hanging out all by itself. I accidently scared him and as he tried to fly away through the wire fence he caught a body part and fell to the ground. Half a second later a small hawk flew over, watched the quail for maybe 15 seconds and then promptly swooped down and grabbed it with her talons and flew off. Perhaps the quail had known the hawk was around and was hiding in my yard...
Regardless, it sucks knowing I was part of its death.
