Falcon Watch 7/20/22
By Rochester Falcon Watcher Carol P
Hot, hazy and humid! It’s a three H day! Temps will be in the mid 90s today. It’s already 90F at 1 pm.
The morning watchers, Dana, Kathy O, Larry O and Carol P have been arriving downtown early to get in a couple hours of watching the Rochester Falcons before it gets too hot.
On the way in, Dana found an adult on the north side of OCSR. Soon after parking on the Court St Bridge (CSB) we spotted both juvies, Kanfai Malachim (KM) and Blaze come flying in from the east, over the river, behind the OCSR, and landing on the east side of the Cross Rds Bldg. They both settled in for a nap.
An adult was seen on the Frontier Communication Tower (FCT). It then took off and landed on the Times Square Bldg (TSB) SW wing ring. Then back to FCT top arm.
Just before 8 am, we’re pretty sure it was Nova that brought in food and dropped it off on the Cross Rds Bldg for KM and Blaze. KM grabbed it, but Blaze got his share.
We still haven’t seen any food transfers between adults and juvies. We’ve only seen them drop off food. Hopefully we’ll start to witness more training soon.
By 9:00 am, the heat was unbearable, so we headed home.
Here are a few not very good pics of pics. Sorry for the horrible quality.
