What wildlife do you see on your rides?

We've recently lost four red tail hawks in Manhattan. One of them was the female in Riverside Park. I'm not sure, but I think she had just laid an egg when she was found dead beneath the nest tree.

Riverside Mom was beautiful, smart, brave and tough. I will always be grateful for the chance to see her life so closely.

Here's a news story about her:

The cause of the four deaths won't be known until necropsy results are in, but since rat poison is used in the area, secondary poisoning is suspected.
