In 2008 a nest box was installed on the Time Square Building  in the heart of Downtown Rochester, New York and Archer and Beauty, Peregrine Falcons, claimed it. They raised two young eyases in 2010, both of which fledged successfully. Archer is also the grandson of Mariah and Kaver, thus ensuring the continuation of their legacy in Rochester. Beauty is sitting on her eggs and you can see the progress from hatchling to first flight 24 hours a day with the Falcon Cam.   Learn more about the history of the Peregrine Falcon nests in Rochester. The total offspring from the Times Square nest: 3   From Rochester: 46

Well, since they pretty much copied and pasted the text from our web page, they should have seen the part about Archer and Dot.ca.

I was going to say can't be one of ours with only a right band, but I guess in theory it could be Mariah after her tape fell off. But I really don't think so.

Maybe a falconer's bird???  Those ragged tail feathers remind me of a caged bird's feathers.
