Afternoon watch 5-29-11
By Rochester falcon watcher MAK
Joyce picked me up for an afternoon watch.KathyO called to see if I knew Unity and Beautys’ band colors. I told her and so she and CarolP knew they had Beauty over at Kodak Park with Archer. No Unity at that time. Joyce and I left and when we got to KP CarolP and KathyO were gone. We went down to lot #73 the special ID’ing parking lot. We saw 2 falcons copulating on the north side of the tall still as we were driving up the road. Archer then flew to the black strip of the blue building. And the female falcon to the PPH(pigeon poop hole).
It’s dark in that PPH and so I thought it was Beauty because the chest looked dark and Unity is very white.I tweeted that it was Beauty mistakenly which I apologize for because it caused such confusion. Now on the west still lower catwalk Joyce and I were able to confirm that it was in fact Unity.
She was whining ALOT for a big portion of our watch. Many times they flew back and forth between the stills and the scrape. At one point they were both in the scrape bowing and bonding quite heavily. I will put together an album for this watch later but for tonight I’m done. Very tired. Good nite! 🙂
