As we travel the expressways around town, we're usually sighting a falcon or two, on highway lamp posts near, either I590/Monroe (exit 2), I390/West Ridge (exit 24), or, today, at I390/Ridgeway (exit 23).

They're never close enough to eyeball any bands, nor are we ready to take any pictures...but they're exciting to spot.

Donna,  So very sorry to hear of your husband's sudden passing;  I will  keep you in prayer that you and  your family's sorrow will ease in time.  Christiane

About Baby acting strange--When Cadence and Baby hadn't had food for a long spell, Cadence went out and came back in with a huge prey and cleaned it and proceeded to eat herself Very quickly like she was starving and gave Baby what was left which was but a bite or two and stuffed large feathers into the little one--could those feathers cause a problem ?  I had never seen huge feathers being fed to the babies.  Another note, I had seen little ones at our nest boxes in Rochester over the years, when they don't want any more, they hop away and turn their backs and look at the back wall--this poor baby probably can't eat any more.  We have to have hope for Cadence and Dad's little one.  Felt I had to say something. . .  Christiane

 

We EACH just ROC'd the day!!

Thanks, Patsy, for the update on Genesee and about the cam pic ofCadence.  I wasn't sure who the mystery falcon on the corner of the deck was, but wanted to mention it anyway, just in case. . .Christiane

thanks,  Dumpster Kitty--I wasn't too sure who that was at the same time I saw Cadence at the camera, but I thought I would "throw that out there" if it was another falcon--exactly what I saw.  Christiane

I saw Cadence at the main cam; at the same time on the still Cam 2  I saw from the insideof the next box at the corner of the deck a juvie and didn't see enough of it to see any bands. Is Genesee still around?   Christiane

Genesee on camera 2?  Christiane

There had been a beautiful egret and a good-sized blue heron a few years ago that spent a few summers at Lake Riley  (Cobb's Hill Park) across from the Armory, both in the lake for long periods of time and the blue heron sitting atop the lamp posts at other times--they were just beautiful!  Christiane

Hi All!

Just captured these two pictures of the Bat Falcon at the Panama Canal to share...
Here are the links to the pixs... One and Two.

Here's the link to the current webcam capture if you're feeling lucky!!!

You're very welcome; glad to help.  I enjoy the Rochester Subway site; it's great for reminiscing.  Christiane 

Definitely the Security Trust Bank Griffin image on that building....

See this page / on the Rochester Subway webpage and search for Security Trust...

Pretty sure we may have spotted a juvie falcon on a light pole on 590 So. on the bridge over Monroe Ave this evening at around 8:45 pm.   Appeared to be brown with a spotted chest--not a hawk.   Anyone else see one of ours flying in that area?  Going too quickly to see any color bands.  Looked to be a good size.  Christiane
