At what point in “New York, New York” did Frank Sinatra touch on the large rats getting scooped up by Red-tailed hawks in broad daylight? I’d imagine that those lyrics were probably left on the cutting room floor, but if Ol’ Blue Eyes would have left them in, he would’ve accurately predicted what played out in this shocking video. The footage below was captured back in 2015, and shows a Red-tailed hawk keeping watch over a landscaping area in New York City’s Tompkins Square. According to this clip, the little piece of green within Manhattan is enough space for predatory birds to do some hunting. New York City is famous for its rich selection of food, and that apparently even goes for hawks that call the city home. This Red-tailed hawk (who is apparently named Christo) had plenty to choose from as it was perched on a fence in the park. Squirrels, mice, pigeons, and other small birds all frequent the park, but there was one type of animal that Christo was looking for that fateful day: Rats.
