If you’ve been looking at the Queen’s Hawkcam, you’ll notice that the young are close to fledging. General wisdom is that it take between 42 and 46 days for a hawk to fledge. I’ve tried to take a guess at what I think the Manhattan hatch dates were and calculated the approximate fledge dates. Of course, the normal “Your mileage may vary” disclaimer applies here.
| Eyasses | Hatch (Best Guess) | +42 | +46 | |
| Queens Nestcam | 2 | 4/13 | 5/25 | 5/29 |
| Highbridge | 3 | 4/17 | 5/29 | 6/2 |
| Inwood Hill | 2 | 4/20 | 6/1 | 6/5 |
| St. John | 3 | 4/27 | 6/8 | 6/12 |
| 888 7th Avenue | 1 | 4/29 | 6/10 | 6/14 |
One thing I’m sure of however, is that I need to spend this Memorial Day weekend visiting Highbridge and Inwood Hill Park before it’s too late!
