A Balmy Tuesday Evening Falcon Watch – 6/25/13

By Rochester Falcon Watcher Carol P.

For the 2nd day in a row, Kathy O has found Pigott at the BS location before coming downtown to join me on my evening Falcon Watch.

When I arrived downtown, I found Kathy O parked on the Broad St Bridge (BSB), so I parked behind her.  She caught me up on what she had seen just before I arrived at approximately 7:00 pm.

It was another beautiful Summer evening with temps in the 80’s (F).

Beauty was on main cam and Dot.ca was directly above the nest box below the NE wing.  His usual spot when on guard.

Just as I was getting out of the car, Beauty took off and flew towards us and over the river.  She turned back and flew over the Radisson and turned back towards the Times Square Bldg.  She circled the area, gaining altitude.  After flying around and stretching her wings, she returned to the TSB to land on the main camera.

Baron came out to join her on the end of the platform on the north side of the base of the main camera.  I could see him very clearly from Aqueduct St (aka “the hole”).

At 8:00 pm, I decided to call an end to my Watch.  Kathy O was gone and all was peaceful and quiet.  I left Beauty on main camera at the nest box with the three eyases and Dot.ca above on guard below the NE wing of the TSB.

All three adult Rochester Peregrines; Pigott, Beauty and Dot.ca had been seen this evening, plus all three eyases at the nest box.  Every day we see all of them is a very good day indeed.  Night all!

The Court Exchange Bldg.  Someone on live streaming chat was asking what building this was seen by Camera 1.

    Just an FYI that Birdlover on the live streaming video chat looked up the old name of the Court Exchange Bldg. It was the National Casket Co. I can see why they changed the name. lol
