We have one that lives in our firewood lean-to
spoiler
in the winter and I have seen it spring out from between two pieces of firewood, grab a blue jay, and pull it back through a space that a bird of that size should not fit into in the blink of an eye.By the time I could cross the 5 or 6 feet to peek between the rows of wood it had already dispatched the bird and hidden somewhere to feast. All that was left as a clue was like 3 spots of blood and a couple of tail feathers.
