P3 gets closer and closer to fledging! After P2 makes a brief stop at the nest, P3 uses some alone time to prep for its upcoming departure. Watch as P3 moves around the nest, practices wing flapping, and even attempts to jump up to the ledge. It won't be long now before P3 takes to the skies.

A Red-tailed Hawk pair has been nesting above Cornell University’s athletic fields since 2012. They have made use of two different light towers for their nest sites. In 2012, 2015, and 2018–2023 they used a tower near Fernow Hall, and in 2013, 2014, and 2016, they used the tower nearest Weill Hall. We installed cameras at both of these sites to get a better look at the intimate behavior of these well-known birds as they raise their young amid the bustle of a busy campus.
