A Good Omen
I saw a falcon clutching a snake.
It was resting in one of the trees in the office carpark.
We contemplated each other. I asked for its number. It said no and then flew off, still clutching the snake.
If this was Mexico and the falcon was an eagle and the tree was a nopal cactus, then I could segway neatly into some Mexican folklore and the origin of the national emblem of that great country.
Either way, if you'd like to know more go here. Apparently there is more to the story than meets the eye, but I'm too cheap to join some Mexican pay-site.

thanks bird fukka for the possibilities. I checked out pictures of the birds you mentioned but it was neither of them. the bird i saw was brown and had black spots on it, but it had a much sharper beak than say the kestral, harrier or the falconet. i dare say it looked like a small eagle. a smeagle.
hey kubz. nice thing you've got going on. how have you been?
Airmen participate in Malaysian exhibition, ... He also said it was nice to meet a Malaysian air refueler and learn how they do operations. ...
