Morning Falcon Watch 11-24-15
By Rochester Falcon Watcher MAK
It was snowing lightly with a temperature of 31 (F) -1 (C) and dark, overcast conditions during my watch
Once again there was no falcon activity at Seneca Towers or the Medley Centre. The last time I saw Big Frank was November 10th. Hopefully she’ll turn up soon.
When I arrived downtown I spotted Beauty eating on the northeast corner of the Crossroads building from the Andrews St. Bridge. I drove over to Graves St. to watch her. On my way over I saw my first Christmas Tree in an upper window of the Cooper Union building on State St.
She finished eating soon after I arrived and just perched for a while until I decided to go look for Dot.ca (DC). I started by checking the OCSR elevator shaft but didn’t see him on either side.
When I returned the Beautyful one was gone. I took a trip around downtown and as a last resort checked the elevator shaft again. Bingo! They were both up there-I believe it was Beauty on the south side ledge with her back to me and DC on the north side ledge preening. I figure Beauty saw DC fly up in there and she followed while I was out looking for them.
That’s all I have for you today- a very quiet watch that ended at 9am after coming up empty at the Medley Centre and Seneca Towers. At least Beauty and DC are giving me reason to smile! 🙂
