Sharp-shinned (?) hawk perched in backyard willow tree, eating red squirrel. Blue jays eventually spot it and sound alarm. Makes deposit in compost pile below (thank you) and flies off with leftovers.

10:30 a.m. In front of People’s Food Co-op, Republic Parking employees waiting with their pickup truck for bicycle owners to come back and remove their bikes from the second half of temporary bike rack that Republic was in the process of hauling away after neighboring business owners requested its removal. (The first rack still occupies the space directly in front of the co-op, and gets heavy use.)
