By Rochester Falcon Watcher MAK

Back to overcast, dark and cold conditions this morning with a starting temperature of 15 (F) -9 (C) and we are not to go much higher than that for a high today

My falcon watching time is short these days as I have a lot going on but I’m thankful I am getting out at all to share time and space with our beloved falcons. Beauty made it easy for me today-I found her at 7am on the OCSR building top ibeam near the south corner.

I parked by the Radisson Hotel near Main St. to get the best angle on her and was able to see that she had a bulge in her crop so I knew that she had eaten earlier. It does my heart good to know that they’ve eaten in this cold weather. I hung out with her for about 40 minutes in which time she preened and napped off and on. A quick check around did not produce a Dot.Ca (DC) sighting so I headed out for the Brighton Site (BS).

No luck finding him or Pigott at home at BS-after waiting about 10 minutes I went back downtown only to find the Beautyful one in the same spot as I left her on OCSR. Unfortunately, I couldn’t hang out with Beauty but she did give me a falcon fix this morning and for that I could certainly muster up a smile as I ended my watch around 8:30am! 🙂
