LIGHTNING STRIKES SPINDLE
 WHERE EISHHAWKS NEST

During the severe electrical storm Saturday night the spindle on the old whale rocks opposite Mouse Island and the mouth of the Mystic river near Noank was struck. The iron cage which surmounted the spindle was knocked off, while the supporting rod was left untouched.
 For years the iron cage has been the home of a pair of fish hawks which built their nests early in the season and reared their young there It doesn't seem possible that it can be the same pair of hawks that built their nests there over 40 years ago although they are said to live to be very old.
 The spindle is painted once n year and the nest is never disturbed. It is more than probable that it would be unwise to tear it out, particularly ii there happened to be any young il it, as tho fish hawks resent any ap. proach to their home. They are alsc l protected by the law, which forbids any one killing them or disturbing theil nests.
