Unisphere Update
Despite some bad news about the Woodside and Astoria Park nests as of late, things seem to be going well for the Unisphere pair, Bobby and Cathy. I arrived at the Unisphere at around 10:30 A.M. and within a few minutes the switch-off occurred. I believe the eggs to be about 23 to 29 days old now, so they may hatch within the next few days. I managed to follow Cathy around for a while and get a few pics of her before she disappeared over the Queens Botanical Gardens.

neat pictures. where's the nest on the globe, country-wise?
Hey Carol,
Its in the Pacific Ocean, west of Columbia on an I-beam that functions for support and the equator as well.
Several times now I have seen a large hawk flying over the Social Security building in Jamaica Center. Not sure where it lives.
Hello Leland,
I visited that area today but did not see any hawks. There is definitely some nest building going on at the Federal Building and I saw hawks chasing pigeons there last year so I'm assuming its Red-tailed Hawks nesting there. I will try again this weekend to confirm this.
