Close encounters of the wild kind I walked underneath a hawk on my way home from school this morning. I would never have noticed if the crows hadn't freaked out when it arrived. I was standing there on the sidewalk, gawking up, when I had this sudden, vivid, image of the hawk swooping down onto me. I know that would have been terribly unlikely but I moved on right away. Still, it was pretty cool, I'd never been that close before except at the zoo. |
