A pair of ravens graced us by taking up residence in the church belfry in mid-February. They scoped out our little corner habitat, then proceeded to roust the pigeons from the belfry. Feathers flew, and so did the pigeons. Next came a 3-week period of nest building. Half the twigs in Pasadena must have been brought in, examined, then thrown, rejected, to litter the church steps. Finally, their edifice complete, they set about the business of home and family.
Rev. Tera spied 4 blue-green eggs in the nest in early March. Our garden web of life expands beautifully.
You can see the nest from the church steps on Del Mar. Look up to the right-hand side of the belfry. The nest is visible in the uppermost niche. Please view them from afar only.
