Bitchy the hawk

The term "eyes like a hawk" has taken on a whole new meaning at BMO Field, home of MLS team Toronto FC.

Perched high above the field sits TFC's newest member - Bitchy the hawk, named in a poll by fans.

Enlisted to stand guard on match days, Bitchy is trained to protect the BMO Field faithful from seagulls.

The proximity to Lake Ontario and the abundance of food makes the stadium a haven for gulls.

The pesky birds have caused quite the nuisance for players, fans and of course the clean up staff. But that all ends with the presence of Bitchy.
