While gardening in downtown Ithaca I saw a nest at the surface of the ground with 5 eggs, barely covered by debris. I don't know what they are (not 100% sure they are bird eggs). My best guess is wild turkey, but the clutch size is usually 8-16 eggs and reported sightings of wild turkeys in downtown Ithaca are very rare. You can see my photo at https://ebird.org/checklist/S357432045
I will continue to check on the nest every few days.
