Playing, Eating and Bathing In Tompkins Square Park

The three fledglings in Tompkins Square Park were having a great time on Sunday afternoon.  They were very active and played on the ground chasing sticks, one had a meal, and another ended up bathing in a playground fountain.  Just like any youngster, it’s so fun to watch them learn through play.

Tompkins Square Park Meal

The fledglings in Tompkins Square Park are still being feed by their father.  This evening one of them got a pigeon.  The fledglings have begun to explore beyond the park as well, with the abandoned school on 9th Street becoming a common destination.

Tompkins Square Park Fledglings

Tompkins Square Park continues to be lots of fun with fledglings enjoying the park and the fenced in lawns.  Friday afternoon had two enjoying the east side of the park.

Tompkins Square Park Fledglings

We found two of the youngsters and their father in the park this evening.  One was playing on the roof of the Men’s room, playing hide and seek with a squirrel and then taking a bath.  The other was in a nearby tree and their father was hunting near a dumpster.

Tompkins Square Park Fledglings

After a vacation, I had a chance to hawk watch in Tompkins Square Park this evening.  All three fledglings ended up in the same tree with both parents close by and one fledgling even tried to catch a squirrel.  Lots of action which was lots of fun.

Quiet At Tompkins Square Park

Not much happened at Tompkins Square Park in the early evening.  The young hawks were back on the nest and the parents were enjoying the wind.
