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

Evening roosts and brief morning spotting

– October 23rd: A fellow Hawk-watcher spotted Rosie and Bobby roosting at the Red Roost Inn (each on their own individual rung).

– October 24th: A friend saw a Hawk circling several blocks east of Washington Square Park (above 9th Street and 2nd Avenue) early in the morning. It then landed on and settled onto a tall building. It wasn’t clear if the Hawk was Rosie or Bobby or a different Hawk altogether.

In the evening I and a friend checked on a couple of the Hawks’ regular roosts and found one at the Red Roost Inn. I found out from another Hawk-watcher later on that the other Hawk was roosting at the first spot we checked; but on a higher level than our eyes were searching! At least they were both accounted for.
