Falcon Watch Report 7/17/22
By Rochester Falcon Watcher Carol P.
Sunday morning watchers: Dana, Kathy O, Lisa McK, Larry O, Linda and Carol P.
It was a beautiful morning and since there wasn’t much traffic this morning, we decided to watch from across the river on the west side of the Convention Center. We had a terrific view of the whole area from there.
At first we only saw Nova and Neander. We could hear a juve now and then, but could not find it. One of the adults actually made it out to the Frontier Communication Tower (FCT).
Finally a juvie flew in and landed on the Wilder roof. Shaky was able to positively ID this juvie as Kanfai Malachim (KM) from the Rfalconcam cameras.
She stayed there for awhile before taking off and meeting Blaze high above the river. There was a short burst of talon tagging before they both headed back towards OCSR. KM went behind the building and Blaze landed on top of the disk. He took some short flights around the disk before settling for a short while on the south side.
Blaze took off again, heading towards us and we were treated to some very fancy flying by him. He then headed west.
There was no more activity during our watch. We did check the north side of OCSR on our way home, and found a juvie on the 2nd Ibeam and an adult below on the 3rd Ibeam. We searched the city, but were unable to find a 2nd juvie or adult.
Temps were rising into the 80s, so it was time to end our watch.
No pictures today.
