Those who do not follow urban wildlife may not be familiar with the Franklin Institute hawks. Their nest is on a windowsill at the Institute. Last year the male hawk was killed before the baby hawks left the nest. A younger(?) male took over the food providing role. This year he and the female hawk returned to the nest and have hatched three eggs of their own.
There is a Hawkwatch blog, frequently updated and hosting a number of photographs. We've had a lot of bad news days lately and checking in with the hawks can be a welcome change of pace.
