hi amy:
the short answer to your question is this: who knows? the falcons have
nested at three different sites over the past five years. one scrape is
fairly close to the falls, the second is about two-thirds of the way to the
opposite end of the rock face, and the third, which won't be used again
because the chicks tore it up, an old raptor platform nest tucked in a
crevice about half-way between the ends and the top and base of the rock
face. reports are the pair has spent a fair amount of time on the near side
of the pool in spots best seen from the (now closed) viewing platform. some
have speculated this year's nest might be on the near side. i doubt that,
but the birds do not consult me about anything.
things should heat up considerably over the next two weeks or so, and we'll
likely have an answer to your question before the end of the month.
regards,
t
