Carol I have been monitoring this rookery for a long time. There are over 20 nests including a brand new one just being started by a pair this morning. Yes they successfully fledge young! Neighbors host viewing parties when nestlings are visible, let me know if you're interested. Also the nests are very visible still as the leaves are not yet fully matured. In May you can see the discarded hatched blue egg shells below on the stairs that lead to the bridge.
Also - Violet green swallows, purple finches, Huttons and others in West Seattle this past week or so.
3/4 West Seattle eagle nests are incubating. (Kellogg Island appears inactive this year.)
