Harris Hawk.

There was a huge Diwali Fair being set up in Trafalgar Square yesterday. I walked through on my way to Fitzroy Street where I attended a Simon Stafford workshop. The fair was not yet open to the public. With all the food stalls around the perimeter of the Square, pigeons were obviously not welcome.This gentleman was strolling around with his Harris Hawk, periodically letting his bird off to fly around, thus deterring the pigeons from entering the arena. He was doing a really good job as there was not a single pigeon to be seen!
