93rd Street Fledglings Explore The Tennis Courts

As one would expect, the 93rd Street Fledgling have been expanding their range and are now exploring the area around the Central Park tennis courts. The parents and the fledgling can often be found back near the nest but the are favoring the tennis courts.

When I arrived one fledgling was on the north side of the courts being harassed by Blue Jays. The fledgling moved to a number of trees, but the harassment continued. Finally the fledgling went to a tree above the tennis center building. It joined its other two siblings.

Two of them decided to fly around the courts, chasing each other. Its always a joy to watch fledgling who were at first very timid about flying mastering flying.
