Today’s weather was gorgeous so it was a pleasure to look for the Washington Square Park Hawks for two hours but it wasn’t great to not see them yet again. I’m going to have to switch up my Hawking schedule for better luck.A fellow Hawk-watcher saw the fledgling last night and another friend showed me recent video footage a friend of his took of the fledgling sitting on a low fence outside the bathrooms.

I checked on King Pigeon’s puddle from a couple of days ago and saw it had drained quite a bit:

I visited Washington Square Park to look for the Hawks today now that the recent heat wave has broken. As luck would have it I didn’t see a single Hawk, just like during my last visit a couple of days ago.

We had lots of rain yesterday and this morning so one of the patches of lawn developed a bird bath. This patch develops a puddle every time we have such heavy rain.

A big pigeon took advantage and enjoyed a bath while keeping his eye on me:

I went to the park for about an hour today but missed seeing Hawks however a fellow Hawk-watcher who showed up a few minutes after I left the park saw the parents deal with a falcon and the fledgling fly around the park fountain.

Earlier in the week a couple of Hawk-watchers saw the fledgling perch on the Church cross on different days so that was pretty fun news.

It will be cooling down in the city soon which should provide for more extended Hawkery in the coming days.
