Trapper got in today. We went up and found the nest on high school butte after a few hours of searching. The nest was in a thinner lodgepole. We also found an old nest lower in a big doug-fir. Trapper climbed the nest and found 3 eggs.
We went through the airport subdivision and found that the Solitude nest had failed. It was pulled out by the homeowners and spikes were up in its place. Both of the pair were on a nearby house, and neither were banded. Didn't look too pormising for an alternate nest.
Trapper and I went and banded the TVR nest. 3 young.
We went with Spohie up to the tank nest to band it and trapper climbed up and found really young chicks less than a week old.
