Rochester Falcon Watch Evening Report – 3 Rochester Falcons Found by Dark – 10/14/13
By Rochester Falcon Watcher Carol P.
Earlier in the day, and just before I headed downtown, a juvie Peregrine was seen at Russell Station by Dana, Joyce, Brian & Kathy O. I decided to head downtown. I found Beauty on the Frontier Communication Tower (FCT) on the SW box. She was facing northwest. To get a better look at her, I headed over to the west side of the FCT

Next, I went to find Dot.ca (DC). I found a falcon with a white chest on the south side of the OCSR on the top top IBeam near the south corner. Pretty sure it was Dot.ca. He didn’t stay long. DC took off and headed southeast towards the Xerox Tower, fast.

I turned around and headed in the same direction. When I arrived on the south side of the Xerox Tower, I found out why DC had been in such a hurry. Both he and Beauty were on Xerox on the south side. Dot.ca was 6 columns in from the SW corner and Beauty was 5 columns in from the SE corner.

I was losing light, so it was time to head over to the BS location. By the time I got there, it was getting dark. There was one falcon on the SE corner of the SE extension and it was in hunt mode. Stooping off of the building and returning.

Love those low light action shots! 🙂 The falcon ended up at the west end of the south side vent.
I circled the building 3 times, but could not find a 2nd falcon and I was unable to ID the one I did find.
I called an end to my watch due to darkness. Goodnight everyone!
