Twenty-nine-year-old playwright and actress Courtney McLean has done her share of day jobs: as a former wedding and party DJ, she DJed an afterparty for N'Sync at the San Diego Sports Arena, and her brushes with celebrity include discussing bikini waxes with Jessica Biel. After studying theater at UC San Diego, the California native headed to New York five years ago, and currently waitresses at Penelope, among other gigs.

Screw Paula Zahn. The city's most famous bird couple, red-tailed hawks, Pale Male and Lola whose living arrangements were a hotnest of controversy a year and a half ago, are now nesting at the swank Beresford at 211 Central Park West. Right in front of Helen Gurley Brown's apartment, and though the legendary Cosmopolitan editor loves the birds, her husband, producer David Brown, is not a fan. It turns out that Lincoln Karim, who photographs the hawks and maintains the Pale Male website, saw the birds outside the Beresford; then Karim left photographs of the birds with the Beresford doorman to give to whoever lived at the top of the building.

I can't get enough of the hawks." As Pale Male and Lola forced a swank Fifth Avenue co-op to construct a fancy nest for them, it might be interesting to see how the Beresford reacts to their new, fine, feathered friends.
