I've seen red-tailed hawks, bald eagles, and peregrine falcons in downtown Boston. One of the coolest things I've seen was a hawk gliding down the bike path about 6 inches from the ground near a large playground, as it tried to sneak up on some squirrels. It did the nap of the earth flight for a couple hundred feet and then pounced on a squirrel. It was utterly unperturbed by the foot traffic around it.
I also lived in a high-rise, and a peregrine falcon used a ledge outside of my son's bedroom window as a perch to launch attacks on pigeons and seagulls.
And then there was that time a coyote was spotted in the North End: https://patch.com/massachusetts/charlestown/coyote-spotted-in-the-north-end-yesterday-b66cd1c7 https://patch.com/massachusetts/charlestown/coyote-spotted-i...
