Sometimes, I'm at the nest area for long periods of
time. I will sometimes watch from my car, parked outside the line
of the turning lane on the N side, from inside of the car,
standing outside, propped against the car or sitting on top of the
car. I've found (at least for me) the best place to watch. I'm
using binoculars that are 12 X 50, so I can see the nest pretty
clearly. Of course, it depends on how the winds are blowing and
from what direction.
Here is a really good spot. If you look at the turning lane,
there is a fairly big tar (black) spot in the lane, about half way
from the beginning of the turning lane to the end. If you
position yourself so that the spot is due south of you, you shoud
get a good view. I'll try to show you what to look for with some
pics.
