Over the past few years, a hawk has made a home on our roof. While sitting upstairs, I noticed this curious item on the floor by my feet. I thought it was a hairball or a dustbunny. In fact, it was a posed rat that had been picked clean and thrown from the roof.
Turns out that when uou give a hawk the freedom to use your home as their own, they thank you with an offering. I like to think of it as a Hawk Tithe, a gift to us for being so welcoming.
Its a momento....
