Morning Falcon Watch 12-8-15
By Rochester Falcon Watcher MAK
It was partly sunny to start today with a temperature of 37 (F) 3 (C)
As I looked up from the north end of the Seneca Towers parking lot I saw the back of a falcon on the northwest corner below the railing. There was no way of identifying it so I left for downtown.
From Woodbury Blvd. I spotted Beauty on a northwest corner of Legacy Tower. She had an empty crop and appeared to be in hunt mode.
Lots of pigeons were flying around the area but she spotted something to the southeast that she was more interested in as she flew off at 8:19am. Just before I lost sight of her, the Beautyful one went into a stoop. I never saw her or Dot.ca after that.
I stopped to take a pic of a wreath on the Legacy Tower building.
I had no luck finding a falcon at Medley Centre but I did come across Seth in his spot on the north end window ledge of Seneca Towers. He had a very full crop and I’m sure he would be there for some time to come digesting his meal.
I ended my watch around 9:30am with a smile! 🙂
