Morning Falcon Watch 1-3-16
By Rochester Falcon Watcher MAK
Dark, overcast and windy with a temperature of 35 (F) 2 (C)
I was graced with the presence of Seth at Seneca Towers (ST) this morning-he was in his spot on the north window ledge as I looked from East Ridge Rd.
For the 3rd or 4th day in a row I found Beauty on the top I-beam southeast side of OCSR from the Broad St. bridge. She had her back to me so I elected to go over to the Radisson Hotel by Main St. where I could see the front of her and check the OCSR elevator shaft for Dot.ca (DC). He wasn’t up there.
I left the Beautyful one preening around 8:30am to look for DC-I didn’t find him, so I left for the Brighton site (BS). I found no PEFA’s at BS and after I went and walked Bella for Jeanne I headed to the Medley Centre (MC) via downtown. A quick stop to take a pic of both Beauty and DC together on the top I-beam southeast side of OCSR.
Then, as I was crossing the Veteran’s Memorial Bridge on the way to MC, I noticed a falcon on the northwest corner of ST below the railing so I stopped for a quick look. I believe it was Billie with her back to me but can’t say for sure.
That was all she wrote-when I got to MC there was no falcon there. I ended my watch there at about 10:30am smiling from having seen 3, possibly 4 Rochester Peregrine Falcons! 🙂
