Jeeves, fetch me my taloneded child.
Which one, Ser?
Hmm…
lays down a piece of furry cloth outside in an attempt to lure a hawk into sleeping on it
(Oh man, and I am in California pretty near I-5 where the CHP uses hawks as speed cameras and I can’t help imagine getting one of those in my “trap” and then getting arrested for interfering with police business)
They use hawks… as speed cameras…? Is this part of the “birds aren’t real” meme, or…? I don’t get it
They are trained to fly over the highway and have cameras on them to help catch speeders and such.
