Neighborhood hawk
March 27, 2006
Mr. Red-tailed Hawk dropped by the other day
to lend a hand with reducing the neighborhood squirrel population. He looks like he might also like to reduce the photographer population as well. Our alert and fearless neighborhood association board chairman, Bob Weirather, grabbed his trusty 8 megapixel camera and risked his life to take this shot.
A year or so ago, I was walking toward home on 22nd Street and saw Mr. Hawk’s cousin perched on a chain-link fence ahead of me alongside the sidewalk. No camera, unfortunately.
It’s nice to be relatively high in nature’s food chain.
Dave, resolved to leave his squirrel-tail hat at home for his next walk.
