I had promised on fledge day that I’d post these photos sometime and the time has come! These pics were taken during the long Washington Square outing I had the day before she made her mighty fledge. The pics were taken over the course of six hours.

Sunset marks her with a yellowing glow:
Sunset through the trees:
Quiet ledge as night falls:
Mama Sadie Hawk sits guard on the perch nearest the nest:
Off to bed:
