Well, thanks for sharing Matthew's updates Carly.   

It is very sad that Infinity is no longer at Mississauga.  We visited her and her mate Eternity last year.  They are a beautiful pair.  The fact that she was a Buffalo gal made her special to us.  Although they are ALL special.  We even helped name her when we had dinner with the CPF gang.  Her band has a sideways 8, which is of course the sign for Infinity.   

I truly hope that she is ok and just chased out of the area or on migration.  Be well Infinity wherever you are.   

How 'bout a zipline ride from Zerox to OCSR for a new feature!  

and we can yell "WEEEEEEE WEEEEEEE WEEEEEEE!" all the way.   

Yeah, I have to agree, not a transmitter.  Too low on the bird and too long. 

Happy New Year Carly!  Thanks so much for your updates.  I'd like to see your pictures.  Please feel free to post the link to your photo blog here.   

Ann B reports that only Quest was there this afternoon.  She was sitting on top of the Harlequin bldg. off camera.  No sightings of the juvie.  All was quiet.

Thanks Allison,very happy to be set straight! Still a Canadian gal :-)

Uh hum!  Quest is not a Canadian gal.  She's a Rochester gal who just happens to be living in Canada.

WanderingFalcon (Carol P.): Who cooks for you? Who cooks for you? So, what creature was asking me this question from the woods at the end of my street last night?

Ding ding ding ding ding!  You are correct.  A Barred Owl vocalization it was!  Wish I had been able to see him/her.   

Thank you Alison.  Very interesting.  I'm happy too that they removed her transmitter and that she went on to successfully nest again after her territorial battle. 

Thanks Frank!

and now for a Shaky haiku:

Uh hum!

ee-chup ee-chup kak!
kak kak, ee-chup ee-chup, kak!
kakkity kak, kak!

Fly swift young falcons.
Fly high, fly fast and fly free.
Rulers of the sky.

 

Thanks Ruth, Kris and MAK!  Very nice!   

I post my haiku.
Witty, waggish, beautiful,
And not about cats.

and not about falcons!   

Kak, kak, kak, kak, kak,
Kak, kak, kak, kak, kak, kak, kak,
And big yellow feet.

 

Help Shaky I can't access wordpress to write a falcon report so I'll just post my pics from todays watch here.

 Joyce and Brian picked me up at the airport and we went downtown to find Beauty and then we went to KP and found Unity. We then took a ride to Irondequoit where we found a pefa on a light pole on the bay bridge. Next stop was Summerville where we spotted the female Snowy Owl on the coast guard antenna. Not a bad watch for my first one of the year if I do say so myself! Click the link below for a small album of the days pics and keep on smiling every one of you!

Hey MAK - Until we get this figured out, I went ahead and posted your report and link to your album over on the Falcon Watch Blog.

Thanks Carol. Shaky gave me a new password and I'm good to go. Now I just need to go on a watch! 

Afraid I won't be able to help out until the weekend.
