"Pale Male" and his mate became the first red-tailed hawks to nest in Manhattan. Winter's concise text is easily understood, though marred by a typo (musuem). She weaves in intriguing details of both animal and human behavior. All is appealingly visualized in her clean signature style, the flat, stylized forms arranged with a graphic skill that clarifies action and enhances drama.
