The year is starting off right with more hawk-on-squirrel action in Tompkins Square Park...
The squirrel won't back down, even with an acorn in its mouth.
Here is some video of the encounter:
And, now, everyone please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance!
See more photos of the hawk here.

omg. I didn't realize there were hawks in tompkin!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots! That last one is a classic, especially with your caption leading into it!
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, there are a few! This is a great time of year to see them as the leaves are off the trees. They've been so active lately, I bet you'll see at least one if you venture up to the park in mid-afternoon. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Marty! For a really great shot of the hawk and flag, check out Gamma Blog: http://gammablog.com/2013/01/06/tompkins-red-tail-hawk/
