All three Tompkins Square hawk chicks have fledged

All three Tompkins Square red-tail hawk chicks have officially fledged the nest. They each left the nest tree consecutively on June 11th, 12th, and 13th.

They've been returning to the nest for meals, and are practicing flying between trees.

So far, the young hawks are staying high in the trees, but they will eventually explore the park. For now, the easiest way to find them is to listen for their food calls.
