A father-fledgling moment in Tompkins Square Park

Photos by Steven

Here is Christo, one of the resident red-tailed hawks in Tompkins Square Park, after a successful food run.

Christo is later seen feeding one of the 2021 fledglings that he is raising this summer with Amelia...
Then, well, the food transfer broke down, and the morsel of (pigeon? rat?) fell to the ground...

Hilarious reaction from birds. How much time observing birds did it take to capture this?

I think Christo brought the pigeon to the branch before I got there. He dropped it a few minutes later. You have to be lucky sometimes!
