Central Park Area Hawks

I was away for ten days, so I’ve checked up on the nesting Central Park Hawks plus St. John the Divine over the last few days.

It looks like The Ritz-Carlton nest may have failed on Central Park South. I haven’t seen anyone on the nest in a few visits, but saw the female spend an hour on a ledge two floors below the nest. She spent at least 45 minutes there.
The San Remo pair, that is now nesting in a tree continues to brood south of the swings in the Pinetum.
The TCC nest at 105th and Fifth, continues to brood. Pictures of a recent visit are below.
The St. John the Divine pair appears to have moved the nest to a Columbia dorm, John Jay Hall.

South of the Pinetum Red-tailed Hawk Nest

When I looked at the new nest a few days ago, I didn’t see the brooding female, just the male making a quick visit. But reviewing my footage, she was there. Today, I looked for more vantage points to see into the nest and was able to get some pictures. This is going to be a very hard nest to watch!

New Nest

Tahj Holiday has been watching the San Remo Red-tailed Hawk pair build a nest in a pine tree, southwest and across the path, from the swing sets in the Pinetum. The nest is about 10 feet from the top of one of the tallest pines.

Today, I saw a hawk briefly visit, sit down in the nest and leave after a few minutes. It was the first time I had seen a hawk in the nest. It will be interesting to see what happens over the next two weeks.

San Remo

The San Remo pair was working on the nest that just seems to blow away this afternoon. They are so late. One Manhattan nest has already hatched and may are due soon. We’ll see what happens.

Back to Failure?

The San Remo pair, after building a great nest on The Majestic Apartments a few blocks south, have returned to building a nest in the old location on the north tower of the San Remo. As usual, the twigs brought up to this location blow off before a full nest can be built.

Twig Delivery To The Majestic Apartments

On Thursday, I got to see another twig delivery to the Majestic Apartments. The nest building should have been done weeks ago, so it will interesting to see how things turn out this year.
