On Labor Day, Octavia, Pale Male’s current mate was perched on the north side of 2 East 70th Street.  The location gave her a good view up Fifth Avenue.

I always thought 72nd Street was the “line in the sand” between the 5th Avenue and the Sheep Meadow pair, but the borders are turning out to be more complicated.   Octavia is regularly south of 72nd Street, and the Sheep Meadow fledglings regularly go north of 72nd Street on either side of Bethesda Fountain.
