Wild Quaker Parrot Video: Hawk Attack in Brooklyn!

My latest video depicts a very tense incident in which a Red-Tailed Hawk attacked a group of wild Quaker Parrots while they were feeding in Brooklyn's Sunset Park.

The hawk attacked silently and swiftly but I'm glad to say that all of the parrots got away, thanks to their famed Sentinel Alert System.
