Antarctica Landscapes

I wasn’t prepared for the beauty of Antarctica’s landscapes. There was always a stunning view.

I’m on vacation in Antarctica. We’re having wonderful weather for their summer, highs around 36. Penguins are plentiful, and we’ve seen all three members of the Pygoscelis family, Chinstrap, Adelie and Gentoo Penguins so far.

Tompkins Square Park In Early December

You would think Tompkins Square Park would be quiet in early December, but the resident Red-tailed pair has had to deal with visiting Red-tailed Hawks, Cooper’s Hawks and Peregrine Falcons. It’s a great show and made it a fun visit to the park.

City Hall Park

I went down to City Hall Park to look for the Western Tanager. I saw brief glimpses of it, but also got to see two Peregrine Falcons chase a juvenile Red-tailed Hawk. Here’s a few pictures of the Red-tailed Hawk.
