By Rochester Falcon Watcher Carol P.

I was on Fledge Watch from 6:00 to 8:45 pm.  Just before I arrived downtown, Dot.ca brought food into the nest box and fed Orion.  He had gone quite awhile without being fed and folks were starting to worry.  Well, not to worry!  Both Beauty and Dot.ca were close by all evening and both were hunting.  With the cooler evening, it seemed the surrounding area was alive with all kinds of birds flying here and there.  Yesterday I barely saw a pigeon, today there were hundreds flying and landing near the river.  It seemed like the temporary end of the hot, oppressive weather breathed life into everything and everyone.

I took lots and lots of pics, but ran out of time tonight.  I will attempt to post my pics from this evening when I leave my report tomorrow night.

Today I was joined by fellow watchers Joyce, Brian, Kathy O, Jeanne, Aaron, Larry O and Willie.

It was a gorgeous evening to be downtown watching these beautiful creatures.  I’ll definitely be out again tomorrow!

Remember to keep your eyes to the sky!
