Three Raptors

I love when watching Red-tailed Hawks, you end up seeing a Peregrine Falcon and an American Kestrel have a territorial battles with the hawks.  One raptor gets you two more.  This happened this evening around Washington Square.

Bobby kept an eye on the Peregrine Falcon and Rosie got buzzed by the American Kestrel.

Both fledglings were hard to find until dusk.  One was spotted going between trees in the east side of the park, before going up to a building.  The other fedgling flew to the the Silver building from the library.  They’re getting used to maneuvering in trees, and are doing very well at gaining altitude and flying long distances.
