My doorman excitedly told me late this afternoon that there was a hawk perched on a tree diagonally across from our building on the Upper West Side.
I had to have a look, and now you can see the best that I could manage with my little camera.
The raptor was dining on a pigeon, the lower half of which had fallen to the ground beneath the tree limb.
What made this afternoon different from all other afternoons was that the (white-tailed?) hawk had changed trees from the next one down the street, according to a nearby resident. Apparently, it has been hanging around the neighborhood for a couple of months.
As for my dinner, you can be sure it won’t be any kind of fowl. Not tonight.
