@MissConstrue OK, interesting story (maybe, for people who don’t work at airports). Took a tour of SEA a year or so ago, learned that to protect planes from the hawks and eagles that hang around the airport (bad), they (1) plant the worst tasting grass to discourage rodents, because they attract hawks, which, if they come around anyway, are (b) trapped in humane raptor traps, after which the birds are caged and put in the airport shuttle north to Skagit County, where they are released. (The raptor traps are cool.)
