Field Notes

Notes:

This is a terrible photo, but this is about as close as I'll ever get to these birds. This is a pair that has nested on the roof of the library at the University of Massachusetts Amherst for many years. You can read about a bit of their history here: http://www.boston.com/news/globe/city_region/breaking_news/2007/05/29_s…
