Bird Brain
Remember Pale Male, the red-tailed hawk who nearly lost his nest atop of a swanky Fifth Avenue apartment building? Hawks are just one of the scores of bird species that call Central Park home. The biggest patch of green for miles around, the park is considered one of the premier bird-watching sites on the East Coast. Also: Andy Card resigns, Karen Armstrong on world religions, and a proposal for a new Yankee Stadium.
