In short, thanks to the effort of many, the 2023 found more pairs than ever
before, rising from 1 in 2005 to 2 in 2014 to 16 in 2023. Many pairs showed
courtship and mating, but their nests were never found. Any further information
would be helpful.
2023. 16 pair in Tompkins County.
Seven pair unknown fate. One pair failed. Eight pair with oldernestlings or
fledged young.
