Morning watch 12-8-13
By Rochester Falcon Watcher MAK
It was 21 finger numbing degrees (F) -6 (C) when I stepped out for my watch today with virtually no wind and overcast conditions
I spotted Beauty on the southeast corner of HSBC from Woodbury St. to start the day. As I approached on Chestnut St. I spotted the Liberty Pole over at Main St. between buildings.
I watched her from below on Court St. I love looking straight up a building to see a falcon at the end of the view.
Less than 10 minutes later she flew off to the southwest and when she didn’t return right away I left for the Broad St. bridge (BSB).
A few minutes later Beauty showed up under the northeast wing of the Times Square Building (TSB) and Dot.Ca (DC) was on the top ibeam southeast side of OCSR. Their backs were facing out so I had to get closer to ID them-I went to the hole.

DC left the building 10 minutes later so I thought I’d go check on Miss Pigott. On my way I stopped to check out the tree in the TSB lobby.

I found my way to Brighton and found Pigott on an east side window where it meets the northeast extension 2 levels down at 8:10am. I’ll just let the pictures tell you what she did while I shared space with her.
And of course she had to get a walk in.
She stopped and turned her back to the world and that’s how pretty Pigott stayed the rest of the time I spent with her. When I got back to downtown I searched in vain to find Beauty and DC. I ended my watch at 10:30am with a smile for having seen all 3 resident Rochester Peregrine Falcons! 🙂
