Quick Visit To Washington Square Park At Dusk
After visiting Tompkin Square Park, I hoped over to Washington Square Park to see the nest. Nice to see the eyass getting bigger.
Tompkins Square Park Only Child?
Despite lots of looking by the hawk watchers of Tompkins Square Park, we’ve only seen one eyass who is now fairly big. Although I’d be happy to be wrong, it looks like we have an only child.
Eastern Whip-Poor-Will
Blue Jays alerted me to an Eastern Whip-Poor-Will about 50 feet south of the waterfall at The Pond near Sixth Avenue around 62nd. It was a fun find on a damp day.
The Century Peregrines
The pair of Peregrine Falcons nesting on the The Century on lower Central Park West supposedly have three chicks this year. I studied them for an hour and only saw signs of a parent. I suspect I’ll need to make a number of visits to see the youngsters.
Show offs
The eyasses on Fifth Avenue are easily seen and are doing a good job of moving around the nest. They were lots of fun to watch today.
Tompkins Square Park
The number of eyasses on the Tompkins Square Park nest continues to be difficult to determine. One for sure but most likely more.
