Overcast. 36F @ 7am.
I scoped out Ditch Ck and found both the TSS and Heskitt pair on territory. Nothing on the RT or osprey ditch ck nests.
Derek and I went to town to check for some crow nests and found a lot of nests, but only two were active. One just down the street from the Deloney nest and one by on the N side of Glenwood. The one on Delony was INC, but the other was just building. A pair was present at the Kudar and a bird flew into the Forest Service office nests.

Mon, Apr. 10
Windy, Snowing and 30 F @ 7am.
Things cleared up at around 9 and I met Jill at 10 to check on some nests. Nothing is going on in the -B- area yet. We did find a new crow nest and the rthas are still building, but nothing at Rye, Ponderosa and Crow. The RTs are back in the Sage nest. Nothing at Kins Hwy. A pair was down in Solitude, but nothing was going on. The golf course nest looks pretty bad. there were plenty of birds around, but didn't see any nest activity. They seem to be feeding on the constructions workers lunches. Surveyed down to the groy GHOW, and nothing in that nest. Walked out to W BTB and they are INC. BTP pair around the N end of BTB, but couldn't determine much. There was a rtha near the McRenyolds nest, but I could see the nest. Maybe it blew out?
