Title: 3rd Falcon Visits Downtown Yesterday Afternoon - 9/7/10 Post by: Carol P. on 08-Sep-10, 09:06:07 AM Just a quick report of the brief battle over the pedestrian bridge.
Brian H and I witnessed a battle between Archer, Beauty and a Mystery Falcon. It mostly involved Beauty and the 3rd Falcon, very close in size. Archer got in a couple hits but stayed away from the two females. When they passed over us, we could hear ee-chupping fill the air. They flew towards the Kodak Tower circling a few times before heading downtown. A&B landed on the top I-Beam of the old Changing Scenes Restaurant, while the 3rd Falcon flew over the Times Square Bldg, past it and turned back toward the north. She passed the Frontier Comm Twr, then headed towards the Kodak Tower passing behind it. Brian and I watched her until she flew out of sight heading north west, in the general direction of Kodak Park. Was this our purple banded visitor checking out A&B's territory? After the other female left, Beauty entered the nest box and stayed there for a long time. Archer was out and about, keeping watch on the territory. We'll keep watching.
