Morning watch 9-19-11
By Rochester falcon watcher MAK
I checked the cams before I left this morning to find Beauty at the nestbox so I left the house immediately to try and catch her there. As I expected when I got there she was gone but I did find her over on the HSBC building southwest corner. I found a suitable place to take a pic or two of her in the semi-darkness. I thenΒ drove around to the various locations where I could inspect the other sides of the building to see if Archer was around.Β He was not!
I drove back around to view the Beautyful one and after a moment she flew off headed toward the Times Square area. I followed behind and when I arrived on the bridge I could see the back of a falcon. I thought it was Beauty because I’m very familiar with her back since she has shown it to me so much. Donna texted to say that both Beauty and Archer were up there.
I missed him flying out from the scrape but did see Beauty fly off toward Mercury. I went down to Aqueduct St. to have a look around and found her on that side of the base of Mercury.
Showing her back side and then turning around before flying off to the east. This was the last I saw of her and I never did see Archer. Though they were brief glimpses of our resident matriarch this morning it was enough to give me the falcon fix I seem to always crave. I soo love these creatures! Until next time keep putting a smile on your face even if you don’t want to!Β π

As a bathrobe brigader, I like my morning MAK fix, that is for sure!
