Baby hawks of Tompkins Square Park practicing to take flight



As Goggla pointed out, the tabloid-friendly baby hawks of Tompkins Square Park turned 3 weeks old this on Thursday …

AND LOOK HOW BIG THEY ARE GETTING ALREADY. (All that rat and squirrel meat plumps them up.) This GIF is via James and Karla Murray, who have been keeping a watchful on Christo and Dora's three offspring up on the Christodora House on Avenue B and East Ninth Street.

Meanwhile, you can find photos and video from the hawkcam via East Village resident Francois Portmann …

    Hey! You'd better keep linking to Goggla's blog for photos as well after all the hard work she does documenting them. :)

    I always do, Len. Look at the first sentence -- As Goggla pointed out ... is linked to Gog in NYC. I've linked and credited her in every baby hawk post!

    Will Christo and Dora's relationship survive the "empty nest syndrome"?
