New York Times: Where bird nerds go for gossip

Pale Male

The most famous spawning in New York is not the anticipated Pitt-Jolie baby, Katie Holmes's alien child, Gwyneth Paltrow's growing grapefruit, or even Britney Spears' Irish twin of a kid. It's these friggin' birds everyone's obsessed with.

We can see the headline of the Audubon Society weekly celeb animal coverage: Nest Laid! But, will their eggs hatch this time?

According to bird-watchers who have tracked the hawks' behavior for years, Lola has almost certainly laid eggs. If so, it will be six weeks, or perhaps until the end of April, before an unlikely wildlife saga reaches its climax and baby red-tailed hawks are hatched.

Or, perhaps, the hawks' reproductive effort will fail, as it did last year.

This is a saga if we've ever heard one. If the eggs don't hatch, will Pale Male stay by Lola's side a'la Asthon Kuthcer and Demi? Or will he just dump her ass and go find someone who can give him kids a'la Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston?

Only time occupied by lots of nerds and weirdo bird watchers will tell.
