After nearly eight-plus days of a downtown sojourn, Flaco — the only Eurasian eagle owl in the wild in North America — has returned to his usual confines around Central Park.Flaco continued to enjoy his sunny life on Fifth Avenue earlier today, just across the street from Central Park, where perhaps he will go hunting later.

There were rumors of a Central Park return yesterday... and the @BirdCentralPark X account was able to confirm the sightings later.
Flaco was first spotted in the East Village on Nov. 6 at the Kenkeleba House Garden off Avenue B and Third Street. He was seen multiple times over the next few days here and on the Lower East Side... even inspiring some we've-been-there-too poetry.

It has been reported that Falco is flying around looking for a mate. Good luck to him I hope he finds a suitable female Owl. He probably has a better chance in Central Park than in the East Village.
It was so nice having him here for a visit!
