Cooper’s Hawk, Octavia and Pale Male

By D. Bruce YoltonFebruary 25, 2018December 28, 2020927 5th Avenue Red-tailed Hawks, Eagles, Falcons, Hawks and Osprey

Hints of spring are in the air.  The park has some Snowdrops and Forsythia in bloom and the city’s Red-tails have begun to copulate.  Today, I caught up with a Cooper’s Hawk, and both of the Fifth Avenue Hawks, Octavia and Pale Male.
