Nature lovers and treehuggers are outraged over the abrupt removal of a longstanding (and somewhat beloved) hawks' nest from the exterior of building at 5th Avenue and 74th street, as residents of the building apparently didn't love the droppings and carcasses occasionally left on their doorstep (so hard to negotiate in Louboutins, you know?). Now the birds (including the wildly popular Pale Male) are homeless, and building resident/aging actress Mary Tyler Moore is speaking out:

"I am so outraged that they would do this without so much as a by your leave," said Mary Tyler Moore [...]

"This was something we like to talk about: a kinder, gentler world, and now it's gone," Ms. Moore said last night.

As anyone who's seen Mary Tyler Moore lately would attest, someone who feasts on the flesh of the living during hours of darkness is naturally going to have a little sympathy for fellow creatures of prey.
