8/30, St. John the Divine

The red-tailed hawk nesting season for 2019 looks to be over. Hawk sightings at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine continue, but they are just the resident adults. Thus the following photo of Mama Maddy taken two weeks ago...

Maddy on a Cross - 4617

Both she and the adult male have been seen about the area in the past two weeks, although not especially close together.

As for this year's baby hawks, my last sighting came on July 16, when the one non-injured kid was pecking on food atop the Cathedral School.

Dining atop a Chimney - 4107

As for the other, injured fledgling from this year's nest, I have unfortunately never heard further about its rehab.
