Did some birdwatching this past Wednesday with Francois Portmann (http://www.fotoportmann.com/birdblog/category/new-york-city/). We checked out the Unisphere nest first which worked in our favor as within a few minutes of being there, the pair switched-off. Bobby came and relieved Cathy after a long night of incubating the eggs. She stretched her wings, groomed herself for a while, then no doubt went in search of food. I estimate the eggs to have been laid between March 21 and 27. So they are already anywhere from 13 to 19 days old.

Not much to report about the Citifield pair. They are still in the area and still working on the nest. We watched them for a good two hours, but they remained somewhat inactive (maybe this little heatwave got to them).
