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

Bobby hunting and eating prey – August 31, 2011

I and a few other hawk-watchers followed Bobby for over an hour as he flew around Washington Square Park in search of prey. He had a couple of misses until he snatched a small mouse from a bush and ate it in one gulp. The evening ended when Bobby flew out of the park and we lost sight of him as he turned onto Broadway.

In this video you hear random conversations of hawk-watchers and park goers as well as the sounds of cicadas and ongoing construction.
