Thanks to Rachel for sending: “I took this (slightly out of focus) shot of a hawk with what I think is a small possum. He’s sitting on the top of a house in Brightwood.”
Small possum or giant rat?
If you spot a hawk, any interesting wildlife or celebrity skateboarder Tony Hawk, and get a good photo please send in an email where you spotted them to [email protected]. Thanks! Hawks around Town is made possible by a generous grant from the Ben and Sylvia Gardner foundation.

Part of the Clyde’s Restaurant Group family, Cordelia Fishbar is a seafood-forward restaurant in the heart of Union Market—known for its exceptional raw bar, freshly shucked oysters from both coasts, and a menu that ranges from bright crudo and shellfish towers to whole grilled branzino and squid ink linguine frutti di mare. Here’s what’s happening this week:
🦪 Half-Price Oysters Every Tuesday, 4PM to Close All night, every Tuesday. Half-price raw oysters—freshly shucked and responsibly sourced. Cordelia is proud to be part of the Oyster Recovery Partnership‘s Oyster Shell Recycling Alliance, returning every shell to the Chesapeake Bay to support new oyster growth.
🍹 Happy Hour: Tue–Fri 4–6PM & Tue–Sun 9PM to Close Two happy hours mean plenty of opportunity to enjoy $9 martinis, $9 select wines and cocktails, $5 Miller High Life, and half-price raw oysters and shellfish towers. A perfect way to wind down after work or ease into a great evening. Walk-ins welcome, no reservation needed.
🎵 Live Music every Thursday at 7:30PM Let the weekend start early! Settle in, order something delicious, and enjoy an evening of live music. No cover charge, just show up and enjoy.
🥂 Bottomless Brunch Every Saturday & Sunday, 11AM–4PM $33 per person for bottomless tiki cocktails, mimosas, and bloody marys. Gather your favorite people and stay for awhile because weekends were made for this.
