I did see this mockingbird defending its nest...
Hover bee!
This went on for sometime...the mocker would periodically harass the hawk and then rocket down into St. Nicholas Park.
While the nest itself appears quiet,
I did observe other signs of life. Here's a rare hawk pellet.
Comprised entirely of fine, downy feathers and broken pigeon bones, this was the first time I've ever handled one of these.
And there was much white slack underneath the nest.
A raucous group of crows--maybe 1/2 dozen in all--continues to patrol CCNY campus, just west of the nest.
