Hawks Nesting in Cambridge

I searched for a relevant post, but nothing, so:

There is a very accessible and viewable nest in the Alewife area in cambridge that houses red-tailed hawks. Thought it might be a nice thing to know for all you hawk and bird fans.

The park up the street from me has a nesting pair of osprey in one of the light towers for the baseball field. love watching them when I bring my girls to play. Amazing how many people don't even notice things like that though.

My office over by 128 has red-tailed hawks living either on the roof of the building or very nearby. We're always looking out the windows at them soaring overhead - it's amazing to see them just float on the thermals.

We've even had a peregrine falcon enjoy a "snack" in the back yard of our house!

Harvard Yard now houses only the smartest and fastest squirrels. Here in Lexington we have at least 4 resident red-tails at Great Meadows.
