| In
late March of 2005, Margie Robinson and Chet Vincent reported
seeing a Common Raven's nest at Mills Mansion. Bill Case took
his formidable stash of photo equipment over there and came
back with a remarkable photo sequence (although it documents
a less than happy ending to the nesting story). Bill described
the scene on April 4th as follows: |

I
was at Mills Mansion yesterday
(Monday) and there was no activity at the Raven nest. This morning
(Tuesday) Fish Crows went to the nest and took an egg with soft
stuff stringing from shell. A Raven went to the nest a
short time later, ate from the egg, |
| |
and
removed the shell. My opinion is that the rain of last
weekend did the Raven nesting in and they abandoned the nest. |
