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

Bobby and Sadie relax at the park – November 7th, 2015

I caught up with Bobby and Sadie Hawk early this morning. Bobby was on the Judson Memorial Church cross but Sadie was not visible at first.

Bobby:

Bobby slipped away in the couple of seconds I took my eyes off him. Figures! Luckily he returned to the park within a couple of minutes, flying low over the square and to a regular tree:

Sadie appeared after 20 minutes and flew to her regular 3rd Street perch:

Soft nest material was blowing in the breeze. It might be a plastic bag:

A little slice of life (traffic coming down 5th Avenue):

I had to leave for the day so I took a parting shot of Sadie:

A fellow Hawk-watcher later reported seeing three Hawks (Bobby, Sadie, and what appeared to be a juvenile). Bobby chased the 3rd Hawk away and Sadie settled onto a northern perch.
