Red-tailed Hawk landing on nest, Bobst Library, NYU, New York City

Violet and Pip ledge happiness

It’s been a while since I’ve stopped by the red-tailed hawk nest at Bobst Library at NYU. The last time I wrote about the hawks, Violet seemed to be in mortal danger due to her swollen foot. The crisis has passed so it seems and Violet, baby Pip, and dad Bobby are all doing well!

I took video and photo footage of all three birds today from my bench in Washington Square Park. Here are some photos of the birds to enjoy until my video footage of the birds are edited and uploaded. 😉 Click on the photos to enlarge them.
