2021 Manhattan Red-tailed Hawk Nest Update 2

Updates:

  • Brooding has begun on both the Inwood Hill Park and Tompkins Square Park nests.
  • A new nest was found at 1115 Fifth Avenue at 93rd Street by Stella Hamilton. The building is undergoing façade repairs, so this nest may have problems. It helps explain why when the Thomas Cardinal Cooke (TCC) hawks were flying high above Fifth Avenue, we often saw two additional hawks flying with them.
  • Ben Cacace reported the early stages of nest building on a Con Ed smokestack at 75th and York Avenue.
