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

Washington Square Park Red-tail sightings, weekend in the country – October 21st, 2014

A fellow Hawk-watcher saw one of the Washington Square Park Red-tails on Friday, Sunday and also early today.

I was away for the weekend enjoying some nice fall foliage in the country:

We got to see a couple of Red-tailed Hawks while atop a local mountain that usually provides great views of raptors’ fall migration:

The Hawks were soaring above this quiet town:

A little bit of a closeup:

The views from the mountain were pretty amazing:

I did not get to see either Red-tailed Hawk when I visited Washington Square Park today but did get to see a couple of nice migrating birds.
