Hawk trapped in Alewife station on the Red Line in Cambridge

Curt Nickisch phototographed this poor hawk unable to figure a way out of Alewife station around 7:30 p.m. The Animal Rescue League reports a happy ending to this tale:

Got word that the hawk was caught and moved outside.

Clearly he should just fly through that open door right next to him.

Moscow has its stray dogs riding the metro; perhaps we could have confused hawks riding on the T.

I had a hard time finding my way out of the station the first couple of times I rode to Alewife. At least, I had trouble figuring out how to get out on the side of the station I wanted.

The poor hawk would be dead within minutes after feasting on an Alewife rat who lives in a station built on a chemical waste dump. The rats at Alewife are huge and resemble creatures from the Isle of Doctor Moreau.
