!!! Resident adults still on territory and observed on the nest ledge!!

Sadly, for the first time since the MEC nest site was established, the resident adults were unsuccessful in hatchling there eggs this season. While this is sad news, there is some good news to report. Unable to do regular site visits as often as we would have liked since the last egg disappeared from the nest box because all of the on-going fledge watches and overlapping bandings, we have received a observation report from Katherine reporting that both the resident adults were spotted sitting on the nest ledge around 4pm today.

This is good news indeed, as it appears that both adults are still hanging in tight to the nest box and holding the territory.

Thanks Katherine for the update!!!
