The Red-tailed Hawks of Washington Square Park, NYC… mostly
A friend recently donated these photos of Rosie catching and carrying a pigeon for me to post and share with you. Shortly after catching and killing the pigeon, she ate it with gusto in a more secluded place.
Rosie has killed and eaten just about every creature found in the park; rats, mice, squirrels, and pigeons. She’s quite the diverse and mighty huntress.
