Ben,

If you are referring to the tree on Stafford road = near=20 Susquehanna State park.

The tree fell during Hurricane Floyd or the = earlier storm of=20 September. In the past month a new nest is being built even closer to = Stafford=20 road on a tree just off to the North of the driveway trees. Have not = seen any=20 birds near the new nest, but I assuming it is an Eagle's nest = because of=20 the size.
