Sunday Fledge Watch – Baron Continues to Fly, No Fledges by Rosetta or Voyager – 7/7/13

By Rochester Falcon Watcher Carol P.

Baron took advantage of the warm, and sunny Sunday Morning.  When I arrived at around 6:30 am, he had already flown a couple times.  When I parked in the Aqueduct St parking lot, he was up on the ironwork between the NE and NW Wings on the TSB.  He then flew over to the roof on top of the OCSR where Dot.ca was just below him on the top IBeam.  Next he flew back to the TSB landing in different spots before ending up on the level directly above the nest box.  He eventually made it to the nest box to rejoin his sisters Rosetta & Voyager, who did a whole lot of wing flapping and running around.  They did not fledge today.  All three were fed by Beauty and Dot.ca.

Beauty and Dot.ca were never far away.  One or the other seemed to always be in view.

The afternoon was extremely warm and humid.  We again followed the shade the best we could.

Today’s Watchers during my watch were: Dan S, Larry O, Donna, MAK, Kathy O, Kris G, Bill, David, Linda (Braveheart), Pat, Dana, Lou, Joyce, Carrie, Shaky, Jeanne and me Carol P.

Here are some pictures from my Watch today which I ended at 9:30 pm.  They are not in order.  Please be sure to click on any you would like to see in a larger format.  Also, you can read what the picture is of by hovering your cursor over the picture.  Enjoy!  Another Fledge Watch early start tomorrow morning.
