A hawk was rescued near the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge. Officials with the New York State Bridge Authority got a report of an injured hawk and immediately stepped into action. Crew members were able to snap a few photos with the bird and even nicknamed it "Dozer," because the hawk kept closing its eyes like it was sleepy. Wild Mountain Birds, a rehabilitation center in the Hudson Valley, and Yonkers Contracting also helped with the rescue.
