Thanks Chris! 🙏 I've seen juv hawks survive worse. A wildlife rehabber reminded me that hawks are virtually indestructible. That advice helped me see this juv's temporary lethargy & favoring of the one foot as healing measures vs signs of decline. Saw him hunt & fly well before he left the park! ❤️

Yes, Blue Dasher! We get tons in Central Park. Actually Big Blue Darter only really works for adult Coops, as their plumage is blue-gray on the back & wings (head is darker) compared to the brown & white coloring of juvs like this. But this nickname is the most common.

(@amornith.bsky.social's) current work of renaming 70-80 birds named for ppl who all happen to be white men. This project strips away a layer of institutional fuckery & I'm here for it.
