Thursday & Friday Late Afternoon Falcon Watches – 1/23 & 1/24/14 – The Cold Continues………….
By Rochester Falcon Watcher Carol P.
The days are getting longer, but staying bitter cold. I am so ready for Spring and eggs!
Thursday – January 23, 2014
After work, I made the rounds. Since I work right across the street from the KP location, I headed there first and found the KP Falcon on the east stack lower catwalk.

Onward to the BS location, where I found Pigott on the south side of the building on the corner of the roof above the south side vent. I looked around for Dot.ca, but could not find him.

My last stop was Downtown Rochester where I found Beauty on the B&L Building.

I looked all over the downtown area before the sunset, but could not find Dot.ca.

Started my Falcon Watch at 3:30 pm.
No Falcon found at Kodak Park. (KP)
At the BS location, I found Pigott on the south east corner of the east extension. She was eating and her meal looked to be a freshly caught pigeon. Feathers were flying! The Crows were passing overhead and every now and then one would swoop in for a closer look. One look from Pigott and the Crow continued on. No free meals here! lol

I headed downtown and after checking all over, I found Beauty up inside the OCSR elevator shaft on the south ledge. For once it wasn’t snowing and there was just enough daylight to get a really good look at her.

I looked all over for Dot.ca at both locations, but could not find him.
Hope everyone is surviving this frigid cold weather! Be safe and stay warm!
I’ll leave you with a collage of pictures of Billy down at Charlotte (Friday 1/24/14), taken by fellow Falcon Watcher Dana. It is always wonderful to see Mariah and Kaver’s granddaughter doing well! Thanks Dana!!!
