From Boyd Hill, if you are on the junction of Center and Field loop close to the road, you will see this nest in a live tree on the other side of the fence. If looking from outside of Boyd Hill, it can be seen from Fairway Ave S past the youth soccer field.
If you're approaching center loop from the main trail, take the right fork in the trail and the nest is easily visible on the lefthand side of the path on a large dead tree, within eyesight of the Great-Horned Owl nest.
When parked in the side parking lot, it is the first light pole on your right. It is located on the light on the football field. The recreation center is located on 22nd Ave S and 7th St S.
Boyd Hill Nature Preserve on Pine Flats Trail, located in a dead tree on the left that is easy to see from the trail. It is found in the loop of Pine Flats Trail and very high up. When you enter the trail, make a left (away from the picnic tables) when you come to the fork.
This nest was found a little past the Center Loop of the main trail in Boyd Hill Nature Preserve (past the pond and armadillo statue on the left and a fire hydrant on the right). Nest is very high up in a dead tree on the left across from lake; can be seen easily from trail.
This nest is close to the road by the golf course, near the Boyd Hill turn/entrance, and located on top a telephone pole. The nest itself is not very aesthetically pleasing compared to the other ones in the vicinity.
