Morning Falcon Watch 1-16-16
By Rochester Falcon Watcher MAK
It was overcast and a bit breezy, the temperature was the same from last night when I went to bed right straight thru to the end of my watch this morning. 39 (F) 4 (C)
After making my way over to East Ridge Rd. I found both Billie and Seth on the north window ledge. She was facing me and he was not!
At 7:49am Seth flew off and returned to land on the roof above Billie as she watched. He went in on the roof out of view a couple times and then he settled near the corner.
Billie took off toward the river gorge 2 minutes later and after moving to the corner Seth followed behind her-they didn’t return.
I left for downtown and from th Aqueduct St. in the hole I spotted Beauty on the top I-beam near the south corner.
At 8:13am Dot.ca (DC) flew in from the south and landed about 5 windows away from the Beautyful one. He had a full crop and started feaking so I knew he had just finished eating somewhere.
I left them to check the Brighton Site before going over to walk Bella. No falcon was seen but while I was there, watcher Larry came by with his dog Harold. We chatted and then I left. During our walk we saw a couple deer-below is a couple pics of one of them.
I also checked the Medley Centre where I only found gulls and pigeons eating from a pile of corn or crumbs of some kind in the north parking lot. I ended my watch at Seneca Towers around 10:30am with a smiling face! 🙂
