Some good news!  Big Red and her partner Arthur (the red-tailed hawks at Cornell) have had three chicks this year.  She laid three eggs and the third one hatched today.  :)  They're the "O's" [O1 is the first born, etc.].  You can watch a live cam (two different views too).  Just type in something along the lines of Cornell and hawk cam.  Keeping my fingers crossed for the little ones.

Oh, no!  O3 apparently died later in the day that it hatched.  Not certain why:
