Tuesday Teaser Answer
That hawk that had us in the rear-view as it flew down Valley Brook Avenue from DeKorte Park was indeed a Red-tailed Hawk.
Really tough to tell from this angle, but the second photo clearly showed it to be a Red-tail.
Congrats to all who correctly ID'd the bird.
Our Next Walk is Sunday at DeKorte Park
Our special Valentine's Day Weekend Walk is at 10 a.m. this Sunday.
We will look for wintering
waterfowl at DeKorte and Rough-legs (left, photographed yesterday), Northern Harriers and other raptors on Disposal Road — with a quick optional trip to the Kearny Marsh to look for coots and moorhens.
Who knows? Maybe we'll get lucky and see another Bald Eagle, like last weekend.
Word to the wise. Dress warmly. It can get windy.
Details follow.
