Mid-Day Feeding
Screen captures from the New York Time Webcam.
It was nice to be in Washington Square Park this evening and watch the family be just that. Dad keeping watch, Mom feeding the eyasses, and the eyasses (baby hawks) being themselves.
It was fun being in the park when the second eyass hatched. It gave us an opportunity to watch both the female and the male see eyass number two for the first time and see their reactions. For Rosie it was a relaxed flight around the park. For Bobby the need to find a rodent to add to the collection of food on the nest.
The dull brooding period is over. Let the fun begin!
Bobby hunted for himself in near darkness just before 8 p.m. before going to roost.
I was in Washington Square Park when the second egg hatched. I was able to capture some screen shots from the New York Times webcam, while I was photographing in the park. Here are the screen captures.
