Chuck-Will’s-Widow

Judging by the under tail of the bird, we had a female Chuck-Will’s-Widow in Central Park today.  A nice surprise on a wonderfully warm spring day.

Monday Evening In Washington Square

A few techincal problems delayed my posting video and photographs until today. 

Monday was very enjoyable in Washington Square.  Everyone was visible and active making for a nice evening.

More Fifth Avenue

I spent most of the weekend bird watching, so I only shot about 15 minutes of hawks over the last two days.  I did get to see the Fifth Avenue nest on Sunday afternoon.

Growing Up

We’re at about the halfway point between hatching and fledgling at Washington Square.  It’s an awkward stage between fluff and juvenile feathers.  But flapping has begun, as has ledge exploration, so it’s a great time to watch them.

Three Eyasses at St. John

This evening at St. John, a feeding revealed three eyasses in the nest.  This beautiful location continues to consistently give us young hawks year after year.
