What is the Nanini Nest blog?

Nanini is a branch library of the Pima County Public Library in Tucson, Arizona.

One day on our way into work, several of us noticed a pair of raptors perched high up in a communication tower that sits next to our building, and they appeared to be building a nest. This blog will document their behavior and nesting habits.

The nest appears in the picture, atop a platform on the tower. There are 3 separate platforms, and the nest material is visible from below on the right platform.

What kind of raptors are they? What are we calling them? What is their nesting behavior? What are they doing today? Stay tuned and find out…
