Red-tailed hawk with crow carcass, Hammond Pond Reservation. When we first saw the hawk, it was flying up from the ground holding the carcass. Its ascent was so laborious that I momentarily thought it was a turkey.









Until you get near the road, it's easy to forget that the reservation is in an urban area.



And then the Green Line goes by.
