When the wind is southerly, I know a hawk from a rickshaw.

Eventually, Bruso was able to coax the hawk to the car door, where he could pick him up and move him out


You’re a braver man than I, Bruso.

It’s amazing that it seems you can see an expression on that hawk’s face of fear, confusion and exasperation.

Good thing it wasn’t a bald eagle. The federal government would declare his cab a nesting place and he would never get his cab back !!!!

I’d have been a LOT more comfortable throwing a piece of baloney on the seat and just driving rather than pick that flying bag of exacto knives up.

I’d bet it was used in falconry for a while and is used to humans.
