Rochester Falcon Watcher: Carol P.

Beauty and her friend, an unbanded Tiercel, have been seen at the Kodak Tower, the old nestsite of Mariah and Kaver.  When I arrived downtown around 10 am, I found Beauty on top of the Kodak Tower on what we Watchers call the Arch Ledge, east side.  She took off and flew around the top of the building, gracefully circling the “lilies” that Kaver so loved.

Around 11:10 am, the Tiercel flew in, I believe from the north.  He landed on the northside of the Kodak Tower, on the arch ledge.  Beauty flew around, both were vocalizing with high pitched scrrreeeeeeing.  Beauty ended up settling on the east side arch ledge, just around the corner from the Tiercel.

Beauty took off, heading downtown (south),  she came back, flew around the bulding and then flew off again.  She was gone for quite awhile, finally returning and stooping over me and down into the gorge.  She again returned to the tower, landing on the east side arch ledge.  This is where I left her, to go search for Lady Pefa (LP) at Kodak Park.

Kathy O joined me and we spotted LP on the NW corner of the blue building she hangs out on at about 1:40 pm.

It was snowing and it was really cold.  Brian H and Joyce joined us for a little while before I had to leave.  It was great seeing Beauty & her friend and Lady Pefa all in one day.  Yay!
