Arrows?

I am having a blast hunting hawks atm.

Prob wasted about 20 of the last game hours on it...it's like a hidden mini-game. I've even added hunting down and shooting insects with the bow as well.

I'm not bored of Skyrim or anything...I just got side-tracked all to hell and back.

Is it just me or is this game so freaking easy to fall in love with.?

I never realized you could kill the birds....

I don't kill birds.

Magic

the final DB mission i cut a hawk with a dagger as it flew 1 foot in front of me

I go to the East Empire Company warehouse where they fly in large swarms and spam fireball in their general direction.

Arrows and ice spikes.

Mostly ice spikes, they're fast.

I don't kill birds, though once I did smack a bird in the face with my hammer as began to take off.

My first time using a bound bow with it's 100 arrows http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v43/unokitsune/HAWKPILE.jpg
This one didn't want to join the pile http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v43/unokitsune/frozeninair.jpg

Simply depict the hawk's fly path and aim a couple inches from it's face and shoot arrow. When done successfully you get this and lots of feathers and beaks! Magic is harder because it actually has to hit the bird on path. Arrows even without archery perks is better than magic with perks. And I'm a mage!

I use arrows. The hawks have huge hitboxes. I've had a couple instances where I've peppered one with arrows and it wouldn't die. The arrows almost never manage to touch its body; they appear to float because the hitbox is so big.

I'm kind of disappointed. I thought those were seagulls. What a letdown. So unrealistic.

But why?
I was so saddened when I accidentally killed a bunny. And to top it off, I didn't know until I checked my stat page.

Hawk Feathers have useful alchemy effects.

I accidently killed my first with an arrow

Wait a second... hmm...

Flying undead hawks filled with my loot!

I wonder if you could frenzy them and re-enact a scene from Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds"

You can do that with chickens. They're not exactly an awe-inspiring opponent.

We need 50 chickens and a Frenzy Rune.

I really don't hunt that much though.

Cheers

Stood on the castle battlements at Solitude and waited for one to circle near me. One slash of the sword did it. They don't fight back.
