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

Mellow Washington Square Park Hawk visit – May 13th, 2015

I first saw Bobby circling in the sky outside of the nest when I was a couple of blocks away from Washington Square Park. He dove like a bullet toward One Fifth Avenue.

I caught up with him there:

Sadie was sitting next to the two babes in the nest:

Bobby settled down and sat where he could keep an eye on his family:

Bobby circled over the nest then flew east. That was the last I saw him today.

A youngster came to the window and looked at the Hawks and out over the park for a few minutes:

Sadie puffed herself up and looked the threatening, protective part but she did not move toward the window.

The kid left the window and Sadie relaxed again. Things were pretty quiet so I left for the day.
