The Gadgetorium

This Hawk hung around outside the Gadgetorium for a couple of weeks in 1999. He (or she, how do you tell?)  landed on that post over there and I took a bunch of pictures of it while I  was walking closer and closer.  When I got to about 15 feet and approached more, it would act like it was going to take off until I backed off.  It was the weirdest thing.  I would take a step toward it and it would act like it was going to fly of until I took a step backward.  Then it would settle down and stay on the post.  Like it was saying, "Hey don't invade my space."  You should have been there.  Or Here, I guess.
