While heading up a side street this morning I saw a large bird near the middle of the road. As I got closer I could see that it was a hawk and it didn't seem to be planning on moving. I pulled up next to it (within 4 ft) and saw that the hawk had a pigeon pinned. Right about then a car was coming up the street so the hawk finally took off and as soon as he took off the pigeon did too! Must have just missed the attack!

A little while later I passed a very large handicapped man in an electric wheelchair salmoning his way down the bike lane cussing at the top of his lungs! At first I thought he was yelling at me, then realized he was on the phone...

One of the more interesting commutes this morning.
