I’ve been waiting for the day, the eyasses (young falcons) could be seen from the street. Last year, I could see them on May 26th. This year, it was today, May 31st. Today, I only saw one, but suspect I’ll see more than one in the upcoming days.

In addition to seeing my first eyass on a ledge, I saw the adult male hunt and kill a pigeon over the intersection of 86th and West End. He was fast and efficient, and then cleaned the pigeon in only a few minutes before delivering it to the nest. The female quickly followed and I suspect she then feed her offspring.
