Hawk

On the way to church I saw a sight of wonder. On the freeway a hawk floated down close to my windshield. It sailed above my car roof and almost floated into another car behind me. It grabbed something in the median and flapped away.

I have never seen hawk as road kill. I don't know if it saw the cars and navigated expertly between the obstacles, or that it almost met its maker in a moment of distraction. Regardless of what it was, it was a moment of wonder.
