    now I'm wondering if they mean red-tailed hawk, or red fox!

    The relevant bit says "Neighbors said Riverdale is just where the city meets the wilderness so animals like raccoons, coyotes, and even red-tailed fox are not uncommon."

    The news item itself is worthy of the nonsense thread: Steven Spielberg's sister saw a coyote and is scared! News!!

    This would definitely make dumbest news of the week if I hadn't heard this on the radio yesterday: "Guess which Kardashian took her clothes off this week?"

    Oh, and considering this is the nonsense thread I might as well tell you all how starting yesterday a robin keeps flying into my window!
    At least it shows Spring is definitely here.
