11 June
The male eyas fledged! After a few tantalizing days of frantic flapping, hopping, and running, he left the ledge at 1233 on Sunday, June 10. He fledged from the upper ledge, at the back of the main ledge, and headed straight east over Third Avenue. Our camera doesn't show where he went after that, but he was perched near the top of the "hat", the pyramidal structure on the top of the building, by 1650 Sunday. He was perched in the same area this morning, in the rain.
