Baby Red Tailed Hawks Have Hatched

It's always fun to watch an active hawk's nest, and this one is no exception.  The nest belongs to Big Red and Ezra, 2 Mated Red-Tailed Hawks whose nest is high up on a light pole above the athletic field at Cornell University in Ithaca, NY.

The little ones have hatched as of this date.  Mom and Pop will be busy catching rodents and other critters to feed their babies.
Here's the link to view these amazing animals up close in real time:
