Washington Square Park

The Washington Square Park eyass should be fledging soon.  For now, we just wait for it to finish growing up.

Slow View of Fifth Avenue

On a cloudy damp Memorial Day, it seemed like a good day to take some slow-motion videos of the eyasses jump flapping on the Fifth Avenue nest.

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.

Fifth Avenue

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 Century Peregrine Falcons

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.
