- And just like that, after 52 days of growth as the fourth nestling hatched in the Cornell Hawks nest, the young hawk nicknamed "L4" took off for the first time!

A Red-tailed Hawk pair has been nesting above Cornell University’s athletic fields since 2012. They make use of two different light towers for their nest sites. In 2012, 2015, and 2018-2021 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.

TAT It is always breathtaking to watch them fledge. Good job Big Red to raise four kids successfully through their fledge. Unbelievable creature. Hope nature bless them.
Four eggs to four fledged young Red Tailed Hawks. Incredible to watch. May they have continued success! Well done Big Red and Arthur. Well done.
So, I was two days early on my prediction. I have such mixed emotions because I thoroughly enjoyed watching this nest this year and I am so sad/happy to see them go! Just think back in March you had two hawks flying, now you have SIX! I wish them peace, health, happiness and a beautiful life! THANK YOU CORNELL FOR ALL YOU DO - FOR BRINGING THEM INTO OUR HOMES AND SHARING WITH US THIS INSPRING, GORGEOUS HAWK FAMILY💕
Fly high little one!
Oooohhhh…. My little heart is all a-flutter 😍 Happy flying L4!
And let's not forget Arthur, happy Father's Day Arthur.
Happy Flying, L4. I dance with joy to see you fly. Thank you cams for sharing.
So great to see four fledges this year!
Oh happy day!
I watch other bird species throughout the breeding seasons. They all vocalize for quite a while before lift off. Are they communicating with their parents, other fledglings, or is it just nerves?
Thank you all so much!
Wait for it... and it was worth it! Congratulations!!
Good job, Big Red and Arthur. Good job L1, L2, L3 and L4.
Way to go L4! So awesome to see!
Great weather and a quiet Father's Day Sunday on campus-great day for you to fledge sweet L4. Was such a joy watching this special hawk baby. Thank you
Good job little one 😭💜
Rubi Roldan, look at bird bath
The time with the 4 pasted by so quickly. Stunning clutch!! Thank you for bringing it to us.
Sherry Webber, look at bird bath
@@BirdBath1 okay 👍 I have 2 feeders and follow LOTS of bird, cat, & horse channels. Got my love for birds from my grandma.
With this... my dreams came true! :-D
"I can do this, I can do this, I CAN do this!" Well done L4! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Another successful year for Big Red & Arthur. ❤ ❤❤ ❤
Thank you, as always, to all at Cornell Lab Bird Cams.
Good strong fledge!! This is such an enjoyable nest to watch every year! Thank you to the camera person for getting all the great close-ups! Prayers for them all to have happy lives! 💖
The Red-Tailed Hawk family did a great job in raising all 4 babies. Another awesome flight away from the nest. Fly free and wild sweetie.
Woohoo! Safe travels L-4 ❤️
A thing of beauty.
This was awesome to watch when it happened...Love the video CLB
We knew you could do it.
How wonderful Happy Father's Day and Mother's Day. Congratulations.
Thanks Cornell!
Wow, all 4 fly! So great to see. And we thought, when she laid 4 eggs, that it would not be a good ending for chick 4.. But totally opposite then what we thought! These strong birds of prey sure know how to prove us wrong sometimes😃
Well! Congratulations L4 on your determination to fledge and I do pray for your safety and possibly seeing your family once again before everyone gets off into their own directions for good too.❤️🦅 I’m glad I found this channel to see before they all ended up leaving.❤️❤️🙏🏻🦅🦅🦅 🦅 I will most definitely be checking this channel next Eagle season along with the one I watched all the time from here in SW Florida. God bless, hugs, and love you this Hawk family and all the people on messages and also and mostly not last is Lady Hawk. Definitely will see your name next season and be talking with you too. Hugs always, Sue M. (Clearwater, Florida)❤️🦅🦅🦅🦅🙏🏻😊👼😘👌❌⭕️❌⭕️😎
The parents will teach them how to hunt, while bringing food to them until they can forage on their own. There will be times they are together with the other L's, and times they will be alone, but the parents will make sure they are prepared for full fledging.
@@joanies6778 Hi Joanie. I do thank you for sending me a message and answering a few questions I had and wondered about. That is basically what had happened on this one live Eagle cam that I have been watching for two yrs here in Florida. The Eaglets do take their time getting ready to leave for good so I guess, they are basically just checking out the areas around them and loving the fact that they can fly too.😊❤️🦅🦅🦅🦅 I’m glad that I will check this channel from time to time and see I’d there are also any update videos on UA-cam too to watch. Thanks again and have a blessed day. Sue M. ❤️🙏🏻😎🦅🦅🦅🦅😊👍👼✌️❌⭕️

I have enjoyed this so much. Thank you for the excellent camera-work, especially during the acrobatic moments. I'm happy L4 finally got the courage to leap. Great site. Thanks.
So very sad to see them all go but so happy to see them all healthy and fledged! That was mainly due to a pair of healthy, strong parents called Big Red and Arthur. They will all be missed and hope their futures are incredible like that of their parents. Blessed them all!
Nice job!
What a wonderful fledge. And a beautiful end to the season. Thanks for sharing it with all of us. Fingers crossed BR and Arthur will be back next year. ❤
thrilling!!!
Great video! Can YOU imagine jumping off a ledge and what it would feel like? scary.
Good luck, little bubba!
Awesome 😎
A leap of faith ~
Great footage! I am puzzled, though by the fact that #4 (and the first three?) has the red tail of an adult Red-tailed Hawk. I thought (and have seen many) immature RTHA with completely brown tails. ???
🐣🎊🎉BR is probably FINALLY!!
really gonna miss watching them🥹
"Hello - kind of lonely and hungry up here!"
How long do the parents support the juvenile hawks now that they fledged?
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🤗💙
A red shouldered hawk has been circling over my neighborhood for three weeks now, calling and calling and calling. I have to suppose her mate has died. Can a bird go mad with grief?
Will they ever see their mom or siblings again after fledging? Where do they nest the first night on their own?
Big Red and Arthur continue to care for the fledglings in the surrounding areas and trees for several more weeks-- it's just not at the nest site anymore.
This is awsome statistics say that 80% of them will die in the first year. That means 3 of the four. Hopefully a falconer will get a hold of one or two
It seemed to me that the hawks are better parents than human parents. The hawks have impart to their nestlings to be independent and to take care of themselves after rearing them! That cannot happen to human children!
Generally, abandoning human children at only a few months of age is against the law ;)
