ALBION – A nest built by ravens is tucked into a crevice on the Orleans County Courthouse in Albion. The nest faces north at East State Street, above the front columns of the building.
This is the second year ravens have built a nest at the courthouse. Last year the nest was on the east side of the building.
The ravens collected good-size branches to make the nest in the courthouse. Last year several baby birds hatched from the nest in late April.
This raven is shown around noon today. The bird is perched high on the First Presbyterian Church and was making a lot of noise aimed at another raven which was in the nest.
