Morning Falcon Watch 12-9-15

By Rochester Falcon Watcher MAK

Sunny with a temperature of 40 (F) 4 (C)  Not bad for December in Rochester

Seth was on the north window ledge of Seneca Towers turned toward the river as I started my watch today. He flew off right after I got situated so I got one pic of him.

He didn’t return so I left for downtown where I found Beauty on the northeast corner of Crossroads. She had her back to me as I was on the Andrews St. bridge.

I drove to Bragdon Place for a better angle on her as she checked out her surroundings and preened. Just before 8am Larry reported seeing a falcon over at the Brighton site.

She pooped, spread those big, gorgeous wings and flew west at 8:05am-that would be the last I saw of the Beautyful one.

I made a couple trips around the city but never saw another falcon there or at Medley Centre or Seneca Towers. I took a couple pics of decorations in my travels. A tree in front of the South Ave. garage and the scene in the Legacy Tower atrium was nice but the reflection from the window and the closeness made for not so great pics.

And that’s all she wrote folks-I ended my watch at about 9:30am. I saw only Beauty and Seth for the second day in a row but that’s enough to make me smile! 🙂
