It was a proper blustery winter day during my Washington Square Park visit today. It even lightly snowed for a few minutes.
Mama Sadie Hawk spent most of her time perched while Bobby flew around and visited the nest several times. It is Bobby who is doing all the nest fly-ins below.
The pair mated twice on the One Fifth Avenue apartment building. The Hawks mate all the way up until the eggs are laid (which could be any minute now). Watch the live nest cam for the egg action.
