Mutual of Baghdad's Wild Kingdom -- Part 2

It was an Animal Planet moment…

We were sitting on the ramp of the plane getting ready to go when we noticed a lizard, about six inches long, walking/scurrying about the shade of the tail. It was one of the moments where you stop and contemplate life. All the crew, both Iraqi and American looked on at this small life moving about the world.

At that moment a Sakar, a falcon, swooped out of nowhere and grabbed lunch…

We stopped contemplating life at that moment and got back to work.
