A Hawk and a Lift: Photos from the Weekend
It’s been a good weekend. Today, a red-tailed hawk kept watch over my house as I drafted the press kit for the new Mostly Dimes recording. The bird perched for about an hour, remaining steady with a pigeon in its talons—regal, yet beautifully paranoid (and apparently quite hungry). I tried to get his/her attention by playing some recordings of red-tails from the computer speakers on my windowsill. No luck. That hawk could not be faked. Such an audiophile immediately recognizes a reproduced sound. Either that, or the red tail’s an analog type.
Here are two photographs. I love the vinyl siding in the background.
