Daylight Saving Time has given us all an ‘extra’ hour of sunlight. Today was the first weekday after the time change I got to spend in Washington Square Park with the Red-tailed Hawks. Knowing that Rosie was nicely tucked in her nest with her two eggs, I focused more on observing and following Bobby.
He was on Judson Memorial Church cross at the start of my visit:
A nice scratch:
He landed on a building (at MacDougal & West 4th Streets) I’d seen him and Violet eating a meal together at months earlier.
He ate a few bites of whatever leftovers he had stored on a ledge.
Preen:
Chewing:
He flew to a tree within the park:
He then returned to the same building ledge as before and had a few more bites.
He flew to a building across the street
He flew west, swooped behind buildings in a semi-circle, then back to the cross:
He left the cross to visit Rosie at the nest for a minute:
After checking in on her, he flew across the park and to the Red Roost Inn:
Nighty night, Bobby!
