Dusk at West End

I arrived at 86th and West End late tonight. Two youngsters were visible on the nest and both parents were on top of 530 West End Avenue. One fledgling was on a windowsill at 535 West End Avenue. I almost gave up hope of finding the fourth youngster, but I saw some wing flaps on the roof edge of 535 West End Avenue. As I was setting up to photograph it it went down 85th Street and around the block before landing on the fire escape of 530 West End. It played on the roof for a bit and then went back to the nest.

As it got dark, the moon slipped behind the adult female who was watching over everyone.
