2022 Cornell Hawks Chat Opens Monday, April 18

Big Red rises off the Cornell Hawks Cam nest to take an incubation break.

The ever-popular Cornell Hawks moderated chat is back in 2022. The first session will begin on Monday, April 18, as we await the first signs of hatching later in the week. For the rest of the nesting season, chat will be open on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 12:00 P.M. to 2:00 P.M. ET; and Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:00 A.M. to 12:00 P.M. ET, pending availability of moderators and staff.

To access the chat, click the chat icon located next to the Twitter updates icon above the Cornell Hawks cam live stream, which will open a window next to the live cam.

Now’s a great time to refresh your familiarity with the chat guidelines and be sure that your chat ID is set up and ready to go on Monday. If you’re new to the chat this year you can follow the instructions there to sign up for a chat ID and password. Returning chatters can double check that your account details still work or get in touch with Chatroll who can help you with any login issues. 

We’ll be online on Monday, ready to chat about the season to come—hope to see you there!
