Third Egg Revealed During a Snowy Morning At the Cornell Red-tailed Hawks! March 23, 2024 https://youtu.be/FK9fL_alp18?feature=shared VIA CORNELL LAB BIRD CAMS
A winter weather advisory was no match for the methodical breeding approach of Big Red and Arthur! A third egg was laid by Big Red under cover of darkness, and we got a great daylight look at the triple clutch as Arthur stood to shake off a coating of snow, rolling the eggs gently before settling back in with a patience that is enviable. Congratulations!

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.
