After talking with a Biologist who works for Hawk Mt, she feels there have been Black Vultures nesting on the Mt for the last 5 years. 2 other people in that time frame have found nests, but she has never seen one. She has on the other hand seen the fledglings allowing her to conclude there were nests even thought there are no nest sittings. She plans on visiting the site where I found the nest this week, and at least she can say she saw one.
She asked for and I have provided her with one of the photos in a large format for possible inclusion in the news letter. I would be cool to be published in that way. We’ll see as time goes on, maybe there will be better photo ops in the near future.
