When I looked at the new nest a few days ago, I didn’t see the brooding female, just the male making a quick visit. But reviewing my footage, she was there. Today, I looked for more vantage points to see into the nest and was able to get some pictures. This is going to be a very hard nest to watch!

Tahj Holiday has been watching the San Remo Red-tailed Hawk pair build a nest in a pine tree, southwest and across the path, from the swing sets in the Pinetum. The nest is about 10 feet from the top of one of the tallest pines.

Today, I saw a hawk briefly visit, sit down in the nest and leave after a few minutes. It was the first time I had seen a hawk in the nest. It will be interesting to see what happens over the next two weeks.

The San Remo pair was working on the nest that just seems to blow away this afternoon.  They are so late.  One Manhattan nest has already hatched and may are due soon.  We’ll see what happens.

The San Remo pair, after building a great nest on The Majestic Apartments a few blocks south, have returned to building a nest in the old location on the north tower of the San Remo.  As usual, the twigs brought up to this location blow off before a full  nest can be built.

On Thursday, I got to see another twig delivery to the Majestic Apartments.  The nest building should have been done weeks ago, so it will interesting to see how things turn out this year.

Peter Post emailed me that there has been Red-tailed Hawk nest building activity on the The Majestic Apartments this week, at 72nd and Central Park West.  This is most likely the San Remo pair.  They are nesting on the eastern face of the north tower, two floor of windows down from the top, just left of center.

While on my social distancing complaint, mental health walk today, I was able to photograph them briefly.

In addition to this news, I received a note from Jessica Ancker up in Inwood that that pair is brooding.
