Date/Location Notes
05-02-2015/Home preening and calling from top of power pole by mail boxes
28-03-2015/on the road juvenile sitting on signal light at corner of Acacia and Orangethorpe
14-04-2015/Arboretum a pair of birds, likely a male and female, in the large blue gums at the dorm entrance. The smaller stayed within the tree, making several attempts to grab one of the squirrels running about. The larger made several forays into the arb grounds and returned once with some sort of small kill. Will check back to see if they are establishing a nest.
