The Urban Nature Enthusiast

Neil and his companion, Nellie, are new to the neighbourhood, and their story is one of a young couple in a highly competitive real estate market.

Well, I’m afraid the crow news has entirely gotten away on me.

Having watched Norm and Nancy work so hard at the nesting game, spring after spring, with not a single fledgling to show for it, I’ve been thrilled to see them now parenting two little ones.

The nesting season started early this year, with spring about a month ahead of schedule in the Pacific Northwest.

It’s an especially tense time on Nest Watch at the moment.

Nesting season is fully underway once again, and, as usual, things are going more smoothly for some crows than for others.

Young Syd represents the newest generation in the Earl and Echo dynasty.

I know many of my neighbours by name.

Most of the adult crows are currently immersed in all things nest-related.

Bill is one of my more recent crow acquaintances.
