    What a pretty bird! Too bad the beauty has been marred by getting jerk sauce all over its claws.


    Also, Cajun Boy, please note that the geese that took down the plane were terrorist [i]Canadian[/i] geese. We mustn't ever forget. Our neighbors to the north have been lulling us into a stupor over the last few centuries, trying to pretend they are harmless and have funny accents and funny words. All so that when the time is right, they can swoop in and take control.


    The geese were just the first warning of the impending Canadarmageddon.


    Consider yourselves warned.

    It's all fun and games 'til one swoops down and flies off with an anorexic hipster (redundant?).

    I took some pix of a kestrel on my fire escape back when I lived in the EV. It was amazing. Then it took off over the housing projects...I suppose they keep the rats in check.

    That looks like a juvenile to me. his feathers are not fully filled in. So like all juveniles, he acted like an asshole in an east village restaurant. What's the big deal?

    I do admire the guy's presence of mind to get a clear picture of the hawk.

    I will say though that the chicken looks way more than barbecue than jerk chicken. That might be more offputting than the large hawk talons stomping all over it.

    We've screwed with birds of prey enough.


    Getting bounced, sure--he was unruly.


    But capital punishment would be excessive.

    For handling birds of prey, you really only need one thing: a good pair of gloves. D.Billy should have put the hawk on his shoulder and just shared the meal.

    This doesn't happen at vegan and/or vegetarian restaurants.
