Why bring a camera???

Went down town to do some Sunday shopping (came home with 2/5 items) and thought 'no, why would I bring my camera, it is just so gray and uninteresting outside anyway, and on top of that it is rather heavy to lug around'. The answer came when we were about to pass the train station. A small falcon had captured a dove and sat with it in its claws on the road looking confused. They were about the same size and to me it looked like the falcon had never actually caught one before and now it didn't know what to do. We looked at them for several minutes, them struggling on the road, cars stopping to see the action, me pondering whether or not to go home to get the camera. Finally a pair of bicyclists scared the falcon away, the dove quickly jumped up and hid under a nearby car and the action was over. It would have been an amazing set of photos. Among the coolest I ever would have taken. Instead the episode is just a memory quickly fading away.
