Hawk in the Deli
On Jan. 7, a Sergeant with the Lewis County Sherriff’s Office contacted NYS Environmental Conservation Officer Kraeger to report a hawk trapped in a local grocery store’s deli in Lowville. Officer Kraeger responded to the store and observed employees guarding the entrance to the deli area. The manager advised the bird flew into the grocery store through the front entrance sliding door and ended up in the deli. ECO Kraeger located the hawk perched on a shelf in a storage area, safely captured it, and then released the bird a short distance from the store, where it flew off successfully.
