Resident Hawk





















Well, we think of it as a resident, but as far as I know nobody's ever seen where the hawk nests. Perhaps its address is Prospect Park? Looks like the hawk's at a nest above, but it's just perched on Patrick Dougherty's sculpture. I imagine he'd be thrilled to see his art being used by our Red-Tailed Hawk. It's pretty cool that no matter how often we see the hawk or hawks at Brooklyn Botanic, we're always excited like it's the first sighting. It doesn't get old. Work stops for a minute and we watch in amazement.
