Tues, May 23

Trapper, Kati and I went to watch the Murie Center/Headgates areas. Kati sat up by the headgate nest, I was down in the river bottom, and Trapper was up on windy ridge. I saw a few birds flying back and forth from the old eagle tree towards the Murie center, but wasn't able to get a good read on the birds. I watched one raven go up into a goose nest after the goose left to tray and steal an egg. The goose came back before the raven was able to get the egg or nestlings out. Kati saw birds go into the forest just behind the construction a few times. I walked around there quick and found nothing.
Trapper and I hiked up the south gully and checked the 04 and 05 raven nests. A red-tail was in the 04 nest and the ravens moved to a new nest down at the mouth of the gully in a doug-fir. Dc and Kati walked the Kelly Canyon.
