Thanks, Genia! I’ve looked into this and I think the following contacts would be a great approach:

Union Square Partnership: https://www.unionsquarenyc.org/contact-us

If necessary, an escalation to:

Parks Department Commissioner Mitchell J. Silver: https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/home/mail/html/maildpr.html

City Council Member Carlina Rivera: https://council.nyc.gov/district-2/

Maybe we can mobilize around the rat poison issue and ask the park or their conservancy to consider not using it at least for when the hawks are there. Best genia

Thanks, Jeanne! Dorian won’t be a problem here. We’ll have light rain in the city but not much more than that. I’m so happy the weather is getting cooler!

Thank you for the visual updates of our Sadie and her consort…Just reading the news of your sighting is joyful news…pictures are an extra treat.

I am not up to date w/ the weather, but hope Dorian does not bring too much rain and wind to WSP and please hunker down safely.
Finally , September has arrived and Fall will soon be in the air,…at last.

Hi, this was the longest stretch I went without seeing Hawks during late summer so it was starting to get to be a bummer. Thanks for the other birds’ updates!

The ospreys have been departing for southern climes, and the Philadelphia hawks are very much out of sight, although they are ok. I missed your posts and feared the worst! Anyway, better weather will bring better news, I hope! Good luck with the lens. Rena

Thank you! It’s been an expensive and time-consuming episode I can’t wait to finally have behind me!
