For at least the third year in a row -- and in recent memory -- Common Ravens are nesting in a cliff at Laurel Hill County Park in Secaucus.
You can see the nest clearly from the athletic fields at the foot of the massive hill, and with a pair of binoculars, you can get good views of the ravens as they come and go,
But other birds abound as well. On a recent trip, we also saw a Peregrine Falcon, an Osprey, two Redtails and five Turkey Vultures -- and that was just that raptors.
The ravens' nest has gotten much larger in the past month, and there is hope that some Ravenettes will emerge in a couple of weeks.
