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

Hot and hazy few seconds with one Hawk – June 29th, 2012

Because of the oppressive heat and humidity this second day of our latest heat wave in New York, I could only bear being in Washington Square Park for about half an hour. I checked as much of the park and surrounding buildings as I could before I gave up and went home.

The Hawks had been accounted for earlier in the day but were keeping a low profile when I was in the park. They were certainly being smarter than me and were probably in a cooler spot than I was.

The only time I saw a Hawk was when I spotted Bobby for a few seconds as he flew east to west. He disappeared behind a building. I looked for him but never saw him again.
