Life Bird

My friend's mom is a bona fide birder. She taught us that when you see a bird for the first time in your life, it is called a "life bird." Today I saw a Broad-winged Hawk. In the middle of Dupont Circle! Just hanging with the pigeons and then it flew up into the trees to take in the scene and potential food offerings.
