St. John The Divine

I finally got a chance to visit St. John the Divine on Sunday.  The St. John the Divine Red-tailed Hawk pair go into stealth mode when they nest.  The nest allows either parent to completely hide on the nest and the the parent who is off the nest usually stays hidden before the eggs hatch.

I spent an hour and half at the nest and only got to see the parents for about a half minute during an exchange.
