snag nest came down fall of 2023

still challenged by the new format of this website, not user friendly for those of us who monitor large number of nests and wish to add last years data, no alphabetical or numerically listed nests, hard to boar down on map, in general not an improvement from 2021 site, currently i am unable to remove the 0 fledgling number as i placed it in error so i will hope to be able to change it in a month or so, chick still alive in nest today

male at nest area for about a week, no female confirmed

08/10/2021 by baygirl
had not seen chick in few days at least and found it dead under the nest early this evening, did not appear to have been preyed upon, it appeared to have fallen out of the nest

may be more but saw just one small chicks head today at 11:00 am, very hot day, observed the male feeding both the female and the chick today, unusual but cool to see an adult male nurturing at the nest. it will be interesting to see how fledglings do with a nest in a deeper canopy of trees.

activity at nest but unable to confirm chick feeding at this time

pair at snag near nest , male with fish , the nest looks like its smaller than last week, the wind may be shredding it

05/08/2020 by baygirl
pair has been working on the newest snag nest at the nature center for about a week, its looking like it might soon be ready for eggs, unless this pair is sub adults, time will tell, this makes 4 pairs at the nature center marsh!
