Happy 4th of July! Saturday Morning Fledge Watch (6:30 – 10:30 am) – 7/4/20
By Rochester Falcon Watcher Carol P.
Morning Watchers: Dana, Larry O & Carol P.
Weather: Beautiful morning! Warm with low humidity. Love it!
My watch started when I found Geraki on a building behind the Civic Ctr. She was sitting on the corner. I saw another juvie fly over heading east.
A little later I saw both Hope and Roc on the Widows Walk railing. Beauty and Dot.ca were also seen this morning, so that makes all 5 Rochester Falcon Flying on this July 4th!
We’ve noticed that Hope is very possessive of her food. If she has it, it’s hers. lol She will protect it and carry it around. She will sometimes share it too. She’s a healthy eater. Beauty and Dot.ca make sure that all their young ones are fed well.
During the morning watch, all five falcons were seen. All are doing well.
Happy 4th of July everyone!
Here are some pictures from my morning watch. Enjoy!
Nice Rous!

Love the Flag and Falcon headline image.
Your camera is amazing, to catch the wings of a bee (possibly wasp) in flight
It may not be compositionally the best in the series, but to me “Hope & Geraki Land on Wilder” is the most interesting of the 4th of July set. Such definition in the wings!
