From G__S…

We were walking in Central Park for about 30 min when we stumbled upon a massive hawk having a midday snack of fresh kill squirrel. Yes chunks of the squirrel were falling down below as we stood to watch him. He was HUGE and was not at all bothered by all the people gathering in awe as he tore away at his feast.

Taken from the top of a stair leading to the central room of the central tower of the complex…I was about 10 meters up a 40-meter structure. And that 75° stair almost killed me. And yes, those are tourists. My bug spray seems to have no discouraging effect on them.
