Lucy and I were almost back to the car on our National Mall circuit this morning when a screech shattered the clear blue sky. Two hawks swooped over the rotunda dome of the National Gallery, their wings pinned in a dive. Everyone stopped and looked up. "I didn't know an animal could make that noise!" a little boy said to his mom.
"Keeeyarrr!" one cried again as if to say, "Well, now you do!" and they soared back up toward the golden October sun to catch the autumn breeze.
