Trying to find som place to park my car I saw this. The dove survived - I made some noise - the dove flew away but was caught in the air again and escaped again.

Hello Nadja

The picture is a little grainy but that I would sure save a picture like that too because of the drama it shows. It is not often one are lucky to see this and even harder getting a picture of it. It is unusual that the dove gets more than one chance to escape when it is caught several times. Normally it will be too tired. On the other hand the hawk fails more than 50% of the attacs. And the dove I have seen is a very skilled flyer and can turn very narrow.

Back to the picture. As mentioned it is absolutely worth saving for the rare situation even it is a little grany and soft focused.

Well done and thanks for sharing.
Mogens
