Morning Watchers: Just me, Carol P. 🙂

Morning Falcons: Beauty and Dot.ca

Weather: Cool start to a day that will reach 80 degrees this afternoon. Beautiful blue sky with white, fluffy clouds.

I spent a lot of my watch driving all over downtown Rochester. Sadly, I was unable to find any of our juvies. But, I did find Beauty and Dot.ca.

Beauty was on Camera 4 at the Times Square Bldg Nest Box. She eventually made her way into the nest box, where she fussed around with the pea gravel, getting it ready for next year. 🙂

Dot.ca was on the Frontier Communication Tower, below the platform. As I watched from in front of City Hall, he was being scolded by the local robins. They dive bombed him, until he was bothered enough to leave. Dot.ca took off chasing one of the robins. When I caught up with him, (from the Andrews St Bridge) I could see Dot.ca up on the north side of OCSR on the top Ibeam, close to the elevator shaft. It was shady and quiet there and no robins to nag him. One of his favorite spots.

I looked over at the Mercury statue and saw a falcon on the base. From Broad St, I could see that it was Beauty.

So, no juvies this last of July morning. Hopefully I will continue to see them now and then in August.

Here are some pictures from the morning watch. Enjoy!
