This live camera follows red-tailed hawks nesting in the Village of Lansing, a small community in upstate New York near Ithaca. It is run as part of a Cornell University project that shares the birds' daily life with the public. Watch to see the hawks at their nest and follow the seasons as the family changes.
About the village and its setting
Lansing sits in the Finger Lakes country of central New York, on the edge of a landscape of hills, farmland and deep glacier-carved valleys. The area is known for its lakes, gorges and wineries, and for the presence of Cornell University in nearby Ithaca. Red-tailed hawks are common across this part of the state, often seen perched on fence posts and utility poles above open fields.
What you can watch and when
The stream shows the nesting birds and their surroundings, so activity changes with the season and the time of day. Mornings and late afternoons often bring the most movement, when the adults hunt and return to the nest. Weather matters too: rain, wind and snow change how the birds behave, so the view can look quite different from one visit to the next.
Practical notes and nearby cameras
Winters in this part of New York are cold and snowy, while summers are warm and humid, and spring and early autumn are often the most pleasant times to visit the region. If you want to see more of the area, the nearby Ithaca Museum of the Earth and the Ithaca College camera are a short drive away, and Burdett and Watkins Glen are a little farther on.
