I’ve been having a relaxed August. I’ve been out birding but doing very little photography. Fall migration has started and a trickle of interesting birds have been making their way through Central Park over the last few weeks.

The Red-tailed Hawk fledglings have become much harder to find. My last sighting was a week ago. One of the TCC fledglings was high above The Pool chasing Chimney Swifts, who were much more agile that the youngster. Silly Teenager!

The Cottontail Rabbits continue to multiply. Two of them have been easy to find at the south end of the Maintenance Meadow, in the late afternoons.
