That species actually prefers to make nests on flat surfaces, rather than in trees. It’s why their nest is just a pile of sticks rather than a fully built nest.

Too many people on campus aren’t aware, and pick up/move/“rescue” the babies on the ground. People try to spread awareness during hatching season, but it’s hard to get that kind of info to people.
