Morning watch 6-9-14
By Rochester Falcon Watcher MAK
Sun and blue skies ruled once again this morning with a temperature of 58 (F) 15 (C)
I spotted the white spot on the top ibeam south corner of OCSR as soon as it came into view from my turn onto the Broad St. bridge (BSB) from South Ave. I knew it was Dot.Ca (DC) as I drove down to the hole.
I then drove down to Graves St. next to Aqueduct Park for a closer view of daddy DC after he flew northeast and returned to the same spot.
At 6:46am something caught his eye and he quickly spread his wings, took off and went into a stoop to the northwest along the southwest side of OCSR and out of sight.
I went back up to the hole to see DC return a minute later with a fresh catch taking it to the top ibeam southwest side of OCSR and started plucking feathers. Soon after that Beauty showed up on the south corner to supervise. She was whining to him and after a few minutes he flew off to the Times Square building with Beauty following right behind.

DC landed on the deck and Beauty promptly landed and took his small package into the nest box to feed their little darlin’s at 6:59am. DC flew over to the west corner top ibeam of OCSR .
DC had a feather or two stuck to his beak. Beauty flew up to cam 1 at 7:13am and promptly started napping while DC hung out on OCSR. Around this time Annette sent out word that an eyas was out of the nest box-Beauty didn’t seem too concerned as she continued napping with her back to the nest box area. She did look over her shoulder to check at times.
DC left OCSR around 7:30am or so and after a trip to the north to look for him I returned to the hole where I found him on the Wilder green strip with his back to me. He turned his head every now and again so I could have a look at his handsomeness!
I called it a watch with a smile at 8am as our dynamic downtown duo were relaxing in the morning sun! 🙂
