Photographers caught amazing photos of hawks in Riverside and Central Parks in recent days. The first three, of a Cooper’s Hawk in Riverside Park, were shot by Christopher Ang. The next three were shot by Nicholas Noyes in Central Park.

Gorgeous photos (of a gorgeous bird)!
Nice photos, but where’s the Mandarin duck for the Lunar New Year?
Very nice photos. Thank you for sharing.
Nice!
We’ve seen a hawk spending the night in the “island” on Riverside Drive between 98 and 99, but he seems to have moved on.
Thanks for sharing. These are great!
Thank you for these impressive photos. More respect for nature would make a big difference in helping Americans and our politicians take climate change seriously. It threatens these beautiful birds just as it threatens us.
Gorgeous. Nature tops all
Magnifique! How lucky you were to see these beautiful birds in the hood! Stunning photos!!
Truly magnificent! Thank youlI thought it was an owl. I am from Maine. What do I know!!
The second photo reminded me of a picture an old boss had in his office, though it was of an eagle, it would be apropos for the hawk and it said: “But I am smiling”.
