Philadelphia Franklin Institute Red-tailed Hawks

Robin of Illinois sent an email with an update. The Franklin Hawk Cam is up and running.

Note the wooden tray box they're using to anchor their nest. That is something that is very do-able for humans, to give the hawks a little help when a window ledge just isn't quite big enough and particularly if there is nothing for the hawks to anchor their nest to.

I do wonder if it ever collects water?

Though if it does, it doesn't seem to have affected their success, at least so far.
