Monday Falcon Watch – 2-3-14 – Beauty and Pigott!

By Rochester Falcon Watcher Carol P.

Rochester Weather:  Here we go again.  Rochester is under a Winter Storm Warning From Tuesday Night through Wednesday Evening.  Snow and cold coming our way.  Brrrrr!

As usual, my first stop after getting out of work was Kodak Park.  I was unable to find a Peregrine Falcon, but I did find a smaller falcon, a Kestrel.  Love these gorgeous little birds!

At the BS location, I found Pigott on a west facing window on the southeast extension where it meets the south side of the building.  She was looking around and preening.  I circled  the building a couple of times, but could not find Dot.ca.

Downtown, I found Beauty up inside the elevator shaft of the OCSR on the south ledge.  Seems to be her spot at the time I make my way downtown in the late afternoon.  I drove around the downtown area a couple times looking for Dot.ca or any other falcons, but could not find him.

As I type this, the temperature has dropped to 14 degrees (F).  The sunset at 5:24 p.m.

I drove home via my lake route.  No sign of Billy, but the views over the lake and the sunset at Russell Station and Buck Pond were absolutely gorgeous.  I’ll leave you with some pictures I took along the way.  Enjoy!  Goodnight everyone!
