While observing the eagle nest at the Croton station I noticed a pair of ravens flying towards the St. Augustine Church on the other side of the Croton River in Crotonville. As I watched I saw them in turn going in and out of the steeple of the church a few times and also sitting on top of the church. As I figured there was a nest in there I decided to check it out and low and behold there it was in the belfry on top of the bell. They really are nesting all over Westchester now. Pretty cool. I also had a pair with food flying low towards Rte. 1 from the beginning of North Ave. in New Rochelle most likely heading to a yet to be found nest. I decided to take a quick check of where they nested on Rte. 1 in the center of town in 2012, but just remains of the nest were there. Oh well someday I'll find it. Andrew Andrew v. F.
