Mama Hawk

One of my avid readers recently raised the question about the mama hawk that last year I reported on as she built her nest in a tall tree in our backyard and raised two hawkletts.  She was around earlier this summer but did not reuse her old nest.  I did see her revisit her old nest a couple of times, but  I don't know where she nested this year.  I saw her around almost every day until about three weeks ago.  I haven't seen her since.  I don't know what happened to her.  She may have had to seek a more friendly habitat.  The heavily wooded area behind our property has recently been invaded by humans.  They cut down trees, cleared brush, and built two houses with detached garages. Hope nothing bad has happened to her.
