<\/a>A feathered friend perched on the sill of an office window on the Long Walk to say hello to Trinity.\u00a0 The campus is no stranger to birds, and specifically juvenile Red-tailed hawks, pictured above.\u00a0 Professor Joan Morrison says this bird probably hatched just this spring.\u00a0 “Juvenile hawks frequent campus probably because there is alot of food for them,” she said.\u00a0 “They mostly eat squirrels.”\u00a0 Morrison adds that there are\u00a0three known hawk nests around Trinity, where this juvenile could have come from, the closest of which being\u00a0Pope Park.\u00a0 “There are many hawk nests around Hartford,” Morrison said.\u00a0 “These raptors do well in the city, eating squirrels and birds and rats.\u00a0 They nest in Hartford’s large trees but also on buildings and billboards.”<\/span><\/p>\n
