and were frequently seen flying and hunting around the hatchery before dispersing, probably in August based
on sightings.
N2 was destroyed in a storm the morning of Saturday, July 18th. Neil Rettig suggested building a new nest with

first spotted on the new nest on October 7th. They have been enthusiastically"
