Hawk in Tompkins Square Park

Tompkins Sq Park Hawk
I’ve scouted the skies and tree limbs over Tompkins Square Park for years hoping to find a hawk. Finally, I was sitting on a bench today with Laura Goggins and her friend Ed and Ed pointer this one out, right above us. Laura, who is a font of information about the park and the neighborhood in general said she thinks this particular hawk is named the Dominatrix because of its dominating nature.

    I haven’t looked yet – gotta get to work on some pictures this week. This was probably the closest I ever got to one of the birds.

    Weather”s been lovely, Irene. I understand that Portland has been ultra dreary.

    Oh, don’t torture me. It’s crazy dreary out here, like the sun has been held prisoner. I’m not sure how people do it. I keep dreaming about South America and the Caribbean…
