"I have always thought that hawks, like trout, are the cowboys of the natural world. Of course,
growing up in New Jersey during the nineteen fifties, my idea of cowboys was...Gary Cooper in
High Noon - western samurais, loners distrusted by the mainstream, their independence admired,
but also feared by a society which values progress over all else. As a kid, I wanted to be a hawk."
