Presenting The Hawk Of Carroll Park complete with freshly killed squirrel!

There had been sightings of a giant hawk in Carroll Park for a few weeks now, but every time I received a call from Kathleen, the wonderful recreations person, telling me to hurry over because it had just been sighted, it was gone before I could get my camera and run over. Not this morning. Kathleen called excitedly to tell me that not only was he sitting in a tree right next to the park house, he had just caught a squirrel and had suffocated it. I was out of the house in a flash. Thankfully my son was still at home since he has a much better camera. So here is the hawk, dear reader, complete with freshly killed squirrel! And just as a warning...it is cold out there, so dress warmly.

PS: Kathleen, I believe you now. Thanks for calling me.
