venturing from nest
Observation details
NY. From side view saw 1 normal feeding trip to nest. No fledglings detected. Moved to look directly in at nest (which is mostly hidden by rafters).. An adult flew out, landed on shed, then flew back in and stayed. Spotted a youngster perching on rafter near nest, sometimes walking along rafter, sometimes eating something lying on rafter. It appeared as full sized raven, but with pale gray looking eye, light color on bill , and legs and feet paler than normal raven black (picture). Think youngster went back into the nest--not positive. Did not come out of building for sure.
