Eagle seen near Tufts

[olszowka.livejournal.com]

On my way to work this morning around 9:00a I saw a large bird of prey which I think was an eagle attacking a small grey squirrel on the sidewalk of Powerhouse Blvd.  I pulled my car over to watch, but the eagle just sat there with the squirrel struggling in its talons.  After about 20 seconds the squirrel stopped moving and the eagle took off and flew over the Tufts soccer field.

Speaking of birds- I have seen a ton of dead birds lately while walking the dogs. Ive also noticed a lot of pigeons which for a long time I didn't see at all.

What kind of birds? Crows? I know they've found West Nile Virus in Somerville mosquitoes on at least two occasions recently.
