raptor equivalent of staring into the fridge

This red-shouldered hawk (Buteo lineatus) was looking for food,

perched in a big Ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa)

on the south side of the open field next to our house (couch photos).

Watching it look all around,

I realized it was doing what we do:

looking for something to eat.

Can you imagine being hungry,

and having "outside" be your refrigerator?
