Birdwatching: Red Tailed Hawk

On the way home from the T station, this guy was sitting on top of a street sign, holding onto a pigeon which was flapping desparately to get away. He banged it on the sign a couple of times, but that didn't seem to calm it down any. Then he took off with the pigeon to the trees on the other side of the street, but he couldn't get too much altitude (the pigeon wasn't really helping fly) and it got away. I didn't have my camera for any of that, but went home and got it to take some pictures of the hawk in a tree.
