Title: Baron's Fledge
Post by: Bonnie on 05-Jul-13, 07:49:31 AM
What is the distance again to Wilder?  I seem to think his first flight was a pretty good distance.  Sorry, I'm too lazy to check the map of Rochester.

It's across the street to the north.  A decent flight. You can see it on cam 4-brick building past the right corner of the deck.

Thanks.  I found the map.  Pretty good.

Yes, across the street and two buildings down.  44 Exchange (Philipone Building) is right across from TSB, then He's Chinese Restaurant, then the Wilder Building.

And he had to make a big turn to do it.

After he exited Times Square building it was straight across and he didn't flap his wings once. Just glided across to Wilder. It was awesome!  :yes:
