Anjali was in biology class with her nice teacher. Somebody came in and told the students to look out the window, at a red-tailed hawk with the remains of a pigeon.

I just looked at Anjali's photography page. She is certainly talented. Could make a living that way.

Janet, thanks. She used to see eagles in Seattle...now she is in NY and a hawk decides to have lunch right outside her classroom window. Didn't waste a second. See you soon, George

I am so impressed with Anjali's photographs. Capturing the hawk so well meant quick and focused response. Her portfolio demonstrates considerable imagination, sensitivity to colors and compositions.What a wonderful aptitude and interest!

You should have seen her quickie of the steamed carrots, round, like marbles, at lunch Sunday. She just sees stuff, whisks out her smartphone, clicks once and done.

Bruce, thanks again. There was a gorgeous piece of writing in the NYT magazine a few weeks, about falcons in urban settings of Dublin, soaring downward for an attempted kill. Link below:

From the great Maureen Dowd: As I write this, I’m in a deserted newsroom in The Times’s D.C. office. After working at home for two years during Covid, I was elated to get back, so I could wander around and pick up the latest scoop. But in the last year, there has been only a smattering of people whenever I’m here, with row upon row of empty desks. Sometimes a larger group gets lured in for a meeting with a platter of bagels." --- Dowd writes about the lost world of journalists clustered in newsrooms at all hours, smoking, drinking, gossipping, making phone calls, typing, editing. *** "Putting out the paper," we called it. Much more than nostalgia. ---https://www.nytimes.com/2023/04/29/opinion/journalism-newsroom.html Categories
