| Note: | Two adults were on this nest although the second adult was difficult to see from where I parked and I did not change positions to get a better view of the nest because the sun would have back lit it. | ||||||
| May 12 | CyclistBarb | 1 | U | N |
|
||
| Note: | 3:25 p.m. The nest looked a bit collapsed from my first viewpoint to the west of the nest on route 173. As I moved to my other viewpoint farther to the east, a male flew in. I set up scope to see if I could see a female there but could only see one bird on the nest. | ||||||
| June 13 | CyclistBarb | 1 | U | U |

| Note: | By the time I got to this nest, the sun was extremely hot. I checked the nest from both sides (2 observation points) and saw that the female had her wings spread apparently shading chick(s). | ||||||
| June 28 | CyclistBarb | 1 | N | 2 | young laying down |

| Note: | The adult female and two chicks were sitting on the nest. The chicks have their full juvie white-scalloped plumage. | ||||||
| July 16 | CyclistBarb | 0 | 3 | 3 | young standing | ||
| Note: | These chicks are big, with scalloped plumage. One was on the nest, and the other two were on posts across from each other, one facing west, the other facing north. | ||||||
