The eyasses on Fifth Avenue are easily seen and are doing a good job of moving around the nest.  They were lots of fun to watch today.

Fifth Avenue’s parents Pale Male and Octavia have three eyasses this year.  They’re big enough that a visit to the “hawk bench” at the model boat pond will ensure a glimpse of the little ones.   I can’t wait for the three to grow up and explore Central Park in a month or so.

After watching the Wild Turkey, I took a look at the Fifth Avenue Red-tailed Hawk nest and caught a feeding of the eyasses.  They’re still to little to see from the street, but photographs by Lincoln Karim from a nearby building show two eyasses.

The Fifth Avenue nest of Pale Male and Octavia has hatched and feedings began yesterday.  I got to see two feedings and a visit to the nest by Pale Male today.  We’ll be able to figure out how many eyasses there are in about a week.

While doing some early spring birding, I ran across Pale Male in the Ramble.  He was in a tree atop a large hill with a perfect view of Octavia, his mate.  He was being harassed by five Bluejays.
