What's this?

Had a neighbor that had a

caged bird. Bigger than a parakeet, not as big as a real parrot. It's wings were clipped, it was a gorgeous day, so she brought it outside to get fresh air on the deck while she and Riverwife had a glass of wine.

Boom!

Out of nowhere a red-shouldered hawk hit it and flew off with it.

The family was terribly upset; but I can't help but crack up every time it comes up. I've had to leave the room before. Does this make me evil? Twisted?
