Shepard Hall, CCNY

In northern Manhattan is a nest on Shepard Hall on the CCNY campus.  I hadn’t heard any news about the nest, so I went up to see it on Friday.  Like the St. John the Divine nest, it’s high up and difficult to get a good read on what’s happening early in the season. 

From the parents behavior, it sure looks like it’s hatched.  I couldn’t see any eyasses, nor did I have time to wait for a feeding, but no parent would be sitting so high on a nest or leaving it unattended as long as they did if it hadn’t hatched.
