Havemeyer Hall Red-tailed Hawk Nest

The pair that nested on John Jay at Columbia University last year, is now using Havemeyer Hall. Facade work was delayed by the university once the nest was found, but netting blocks a direct view of the nest. The easiest way to watch the nest is to go to the entrance on the east side of Broadway and 117th Streets, go up the stairs and then look north. While the nest is hard to see now, in a few more weeks, we should have the eyasses “branching” on the scafolding.

There are three eyasses. The male often sits on a flag pole west of the Low Library, and was there today.
