By Rochester Falcon Watcher Carol P.

I’ll just add a little bit and a few pics from my watch today.  Most of our watch was spent staring up at the sky and watching Beauty and the other female flying between Xerox, B&L, HSBC and points east.  That’s why MAK, Dana and I ended up at the Strong Museum parking lot.  Now and then they would land, but never for too long.  They would be up again and flying.  When there was an opening, one or the other would stoop on and hit the other.  The battle has now entered its second day.

If you’re wondering why Dot.ca has not joined the battle, it’s because the male (tiercel) is much smaller than these females and will usually not become involved.  He could easily be injured by the females.  He is usually nearby watching.  Now we just watch and wait to see how this will all turn out.

Here are some pics I took during today’s watch, just to give you a taste of what we were seeing all day.

I would like to thank all the Rochester Falcon Watchers that joined the Watch today to keep their eyes to the sky.  MAK, Dana, Kathy O, Larry O, Lisa McK, Pat, Debbie H, Joyce & Brian. Your help was greatly appreciated.

We will continue to keep an eye on the situation and report what we see.

Goodnight Everyone!
