The Astoria/Triborough Bridge nest has at least two chicks in its new location on the other side of the bridge. (Thanks, Jules Corkery for the update.) I didn't get great pictures this evening but wanted to share them never the less.
The Astoria female was very ill this fall and was nursed back to health under the care of Bobby Hovarth. With all of the bad news, it's important to remember that there are still lots of positive stories and successes in New York City.
Update 5/15/08: Also on the good news front Peregrine Falcons are doing well this season. 55 Water St. has a scrape with four nestlings which can be viewed on a webcam, and at least two birds have fledged on the Met Life building.
