St. John The Divine
The new nest location at St. John seems to result in a later hatching then other nests in the city. Today, I was able to see an eyass having a meal. We’ll know in a few weeks if it has any siblings.

The young Fifth Avenue hawks look great. They should be leaving the nest in a week or so. All we have to do is watch and wait.
The young Peregrine Falcons on Central Park West are big enough to see finally. I saw two of them on Saturday and both the parents. My understanding is there might be a third youngster.
While they still have some growing up to do before leaving the nest, the eyasses look more and more grown up every day. They’re eating on their own now. Pale Male on the nest in the beginning of the video, followed by Octavia.
This afternoon, I got to see both parents on the nest and the eyass. It was nice to see all three hawks.
(A few folks have asked me about when the rescued eyass. I trust the folks at WINORR to make the correct choice about what to do with the eyass. There are so many factors involved, I wouldn’t even try to second guess the experts.)
The Washington Square Park eyass is looking more and more like a fledgling every day. It still has a bit of maturing to do but gone is the fluffy youngster of a few weeks ago.
