There is A LOT of juvenile red-tailed hawk activity now in Tompkins Square Park in recent days... as Amelia and Christo's three 2023 offspring have fledged and are testing their wings and practicing their staredowns.
Many more photos TK in the days ahead.
they were all over the place!
ReplyDeleteStare down is right! Some nervous squirrels in TSP these days.
ReplyDeleteGreat shot - thanks
ReplyDeleteAs the fledglings are out and about now, this is a good time to remind everyone to take care when watching them - give them a lot of space as they are learning to fly and hunt. If they are on the ground, please keep dogs away and let them do their thing. It's normal for them to be on the ground eating or playing. If you have reason to believe they are in distress, call 311 and ask for the Urban Park Rangers.
ReplyDeleteGreat shot. Destiny is all.
