Squirrel-Eating Hawk Spotted in Kirkland Courtyard

This red-tailed hawk was spotted yesterday afternoon in Kirkland courtyard. Yes, it is clutching a dead squirrel.

We asked Michael C. Cioffi '11, who sent a picture of the bird over Kirkland's open list, to share some more photos. Here they are.

We hear that red-tailed hawks are pretty common around here, but we've never noticed them before. If you encounter any further hawk (or other animal) sightings, let us know! Send your pics to flyby@thecrimson.com.
