Bobby & Sadie seen together on Valentine’s Day

An Arctic chill and family obligations kept me from birding over the last few days however a faithful Hawk-watcher did see Bobby and his new mate Sadie together on Valentine’s Day.

The origin of the name Sadie can be found in this post.

I will be visiting Washington Square Park again very soon and will update you on the Hawks’ activities.

The arrival of the new female Red-tailed Hawk is bittersweet in that I still miss Rosie very much but I am glad that Bobby has a new mate in time for a spring brood.

My fingers are crossed that they become a successful pair and live together for many years to come.
