The award-winning documentary, The Legend of Pale Male, is being screened Sat. April 27 at 6:30 p.m. at Montview Presbyterian Church, 1980 Dahlia St., Denver as a fund-raiser for Denver’s book magazine, The Bloomsbury Review. The film’s director, Frederic Lilien will be present for the reception and screening which begins at 7:15 p.m.
The red-tail hawk caught the hearts of New Yorkers when it began nesting on a high rise overlooking Central Park in 1992. Fans were outraged when board members removed the roost in 2004, launching a campaign to have the nest reinstalled. Naturalist, photographer and writer Charles Kennedy plays a central role in the movie and took many photos of Pale Male and other wildlife in Central Park. His nephew, Steve Kennedy, a longtime trip leader for Denver Field Ornithologists, compiled his uncle’s writing into several books which will also be available for purchase.

I plan to attend. Hope to see you there.
