The year before I left 12th Street, I found a fairly large dead red-tailed hawk on my terrace.
I have a feeling that they eat rodents who have ingested rat poison over at Thompkins Square.
Even dead, it was extremely handsome!
I just saw a dead sparrow on Broome...is something sinister afoot??
every so often it seems someone poisons the pigeons. maybe the little birds get caught up in that sinister business.
I saw a dying sparrow on Houston. I also saw a great many panicked sparrows swooping and swirling outside my kitchen window. I suspect hawks.
Looking at the picture again, it wasn't a sparrow I saw; it was a yellow chested warbler. Outside a glass building (the Ludlow), looking dazed.
the World Trade Center was a major killer of migratory birds.
