Rat Machine

Although my schedule has prevented from seeing the hawks in the morning, fellow hawk watchers report that both fledglings have discovered the Boat Basin dumpsters, Riverside Park’s Rat Machine! 
The hunting seems to take place in the late mornings.

On Friday afternoon, when I arrived, I could only find one fledgling but saw both of the parents.
