Spot the (broad-winged? not sure on the exact species) hawk hanging around campus.

Me: Gosh, I wonder why every single book in this collection of incunabula has broken hinges, despite the 1950s gift paperwork saying they were in good condition.

Enter this photo, where the books are all displayed open with no cradles:
Black and white photograph of a university library, with a cement staircase on the left, study desks with chairs in the foreground, stacks in the background, and a display case tucked under the staircase showing pre-1500 books displayed open. The library also has a brick wall covered in ivy indoors in the back, for good measure.
