Fledge Watch Report – 6/25/21
By Rochester Falcon Watcher Carol P.
Watchers (during my watch): Kathy O, Lisa McK, Dana, Larry O and Carol P.
7:00 am to 1:00 pm
The temps are rising along with the humidity. Temps up into the high 80’s expected today.
The watchers have continued to search for any sign of Freyja. We all have hope that she is ok and that she will show herself to us soon. Neither Beauty or Dot.ca seem concerned, so we have to follow their lead and continue to look for her. After seeing her day before last, flying and landing so well, I have hope we will see her again.
So, today’s watch was all about our beautiful Golden. He is doing great, flying and landing with great confidence. Today he tried to knock Beauty off of the back extension of the Times Square Bldg, where she was preparing food, which he eventually got at the nest box area.
The Widows Walk has become a favorite spot for Golden. He just loves to watch the small flitty birds and pigeons landing and flying below him. Needless to say, I believe he knows that these are what he will eventually be hunting on his own.
Here are a few of my favorite pictures from today’s watch. Enjoy!

Beauty seemed to spend a lot of time at Powers. Vacation home?
