Yesterday, as I was stopping for the light at the corner of Belle Meade  
Boulevard and Harding Place in that part of West Nashville at about 4 P.M., a  
red-tailed hawk was diving from the sky toward a lawn below him in hot 
pursuit  of dinner.  It missed, and circled back around to perch on the utility 
pole  on the median strip of the boulevard, ruffle its feathers (expressing  
frustration?) and settled down to wait for the next dining opportunity.   
The light changed and I  drove away to arrive home by 4:15.
