I am literally watching a woman at this very moment hawking (large handsome hawk with dark chestnut back and wings and a broad white band across the top of its spade-shaped tail and sparrow-hawk pattern of "fingers" on rounded wing ends, not sharp like a peregrine or kestrel and perhaps a white bar on the end of the tail) across the square at Old Trafford Cricket Ground. It's amazing (and completely serendipitious - I'm here for the Venturefest event.)
