I had a fifteen minute window to see and photograph the southeastern Central Park red-tailed hawks. I followed one that was soaring back and forth from the Crown Building to the park.

Success without a minute to spare:
I had hoped to get further down the street to get a better vantage point of the nest from the ground but I took what I could get.
Different view of the building for scale:
