I don't know what became of them after she led them down to Rock Creek. The nest is in a concave corner by the front door of my apartment building in Georgetown. We have a _small_ koi pond by the door, and just enough room behind it for the nest. This is the second year she's nested here, but the first second attempt. -- Carrol Cowan Washington DC ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
