McCarren Park, Brooklyn

By D. Bruce YoltonOther Red-tailed Hawks

I went to McCarren Park in Brooklyn today to follow up a report sent to Rob Jett from a friend who plays baseball in the park. 

Within minutes of arriving, I found this hawk on lights for the baseball field.  It made a hunting attempt across the street.  (The 36 acre park is divided up into strips with north/south streets going through the park.)
It ended on a low branch perfect for taking portraits.
It then flew off and I lost track of it.
