I was gonna say maybe pheasant but hawk or owl came to mind too. I had a screech owl get killed on the road in front of my house when i lived in Liverpool Pa. i tried for three years to get someone to mount it for me, no one would, so i made a neat necklace out of the talons, while visiting the Game commision booth at the Port Royal fairgrounds when they saw that they flipped out and i had to give it to them or they were gonna arrest me on the spot......i gave it up and i honestly didn't think i did anything wrong , but that is the law.

Bobs is one of my favorites and above pavia there are all kinds of wild critters , the very first time i saw a coyote was at the parking lot right where you turn onto the road to cox's monument.
