By Rochester falcon watcher MAK

This is one of the darkest mornings ever! Very poor conditions for picture taking so bare with me. I found Beauty on the HSBC building after checking around the Broad St. bridge area on my way over to the east side. She was on the south side with her back to me. Within 30 seconds she flew off heading west toward the river and I followed suit. As I pulled over on the Broad St. bridge I spotted a falcon on the OCSR building top ibeam at the west corner. I then drove down to Aqueduct St. to get a closer look. It was Archer.

Now the question was where did the Beautyful one go off to. I went over and parked on Broad St. next to the Blue Cross arena and couldn’t see the nestbox area from that vantage point. 15 minutes later Archer flew off to the northwest. As I drove off to try to find him I got a text message from Donna saying that Beauty had been up in the nestbox as I sat down below without a clue!  After searching for about 25 minutes I saw Beauty on the 2nd ibeam west side corner of the OCSR building.

She appeared to have a full crop and after a few moments she walked to her right a foot or two and remained there for the rest of my watch. I think it’s odd that Archer didn’t go join her when she was at the nestbox.

I have a few pics to share with you from last nights outing with Joyce. We stopped to check out KP where we found Archer under the pigeon box and Unity on the tall still.

So there you have it folks some  bonus pics of Unity. Make sure to smile often today it will help to brighten the day!  🙂
