Inwood Park RT Nest Update from Urban Hawk Observer Mitch Nusbaum


5/05 Friday,

Still one Hawklet at Tuliptree. The entire time there, the mom stood up in the bowl. The nest is an eye level view East of the observation point.

For the time I was there, 1:30-3:30pm, the mom stood up. I got a solid eyeball of the Hawklet at 2:58p, he poked his head up like a jack-in-the-box. 3:05p mom feeding bill-bill.

With each passing day foliage is filling out making sighting more difficult. This warm day brought many foraging warblers, sometimes in the foreground where the baby was. Still just 1 hawklet.
