Title: Quest at Kingston- In The Flesh! Post by: Yarak on 24-Jan-11, 04:00:23 PM Quote Quest has continued to stay around Prince Edward Point with frequent trips into nearby Kingston Ontario this month. Recently our friends at the Canadian Peregrine Foundation posted about Quest visiting the Kingston Harbor on January 4. Happily CPF observer Rachel McRae was able to get some pictures of Quest. We're reprinting them... Link: http://rfalconcam.com/imprinting/?p=1434 (http://rfalconcam.com/imprinting/?p=1434) Title: Re: Quest at Kingston- In The Flesh!

Congrats on your first post, Penelope99! Welcome, Penelope. Are you in a place where you can actually see Quest -- in the flesh? That's great!.. Keep us posted on her wander -er.

Post by: Penelope99 on 19-Feb-11, 09:35:12 AM Yes, I remember that!!
We have one pair of falcons in Montreal, Spirit and Roger. Here is the link: http://ornithologie.ca/faucons/ (http://ornithologie.ca/faucons/) If you go to the blog you will hear them to discuss about the next season... I think to understand it's about the number of babies; Mom want to have 5 but dad is not happy with this. He imagines how much he will have to work for feed all this family...;) Title: Re: Quest at Kingston- In The Flesh! Post by: Nic1Pic on 19-Feb-11, 12:07:15 PM So Penelope we are both from QC.

Title: Re: Quest at Kingston- In The Flesh! Post by: Shaky on 08-Mar-11, 09:58:50 PM I don't know where Quest was today, but for the past 4 days, she has been very close to Pickering. She may have returned to the power plant.

She may have returned to the power plant. Interesting-I thought for sure she was going to settle on the Lennox Power plant. Title: Re: Quest at Kingston- In The Flesh!

Title: Re: Quest at Kingston- In The Flesh! Post by: Penelope99 on 29-Mar-11, 05:12:31 PM No news of Quest? She seems to travel very much in this time... :(
Title: Re: Quest at Kingston- In The Flesh! Post by: Shaky on 29-Mar-11, 08:54:44 PM Be sure to check the weekly map.

Post by: Dumpsterkitty on 29-Mar-11, 09:00:13 PM She is just not ready to settle down, is she?
Title: Re: Quest at Kingston- In The Flesh! Post by: Donna on 29-Mar-11, 09:07:55 PM I wish she would go back to Lennox or have some eggs! She reminds me of Bobbin!
Title: Re: Quest at Kingston- In The Flesh! Post by: Bird Crazy on 30-Mar-11, 07:03:33 AM She is just not ready to settle down, is she? or she hasn't found a nest spot she is happy with. I think I know what is wrong with the lennox box. Its being on the roof with no wall to the back. I read that falcons don't like such a open spot. It probably feels unprotected.Title: Re: Quest at Kingston- In The Flesh! Post by: Penelope99 on 11-Apr-11, 06:17:49 PM It seems that Quest has more stability since some days, do you know someone who can to watch her near Pickering?
