I was thrilled to see this too!!  They seemed to move after a failed nest site- I think their little ones died.  I was thinking too that they might not have enough people to really look!

Sorry about being a poor correspndent this year. I am afraid that some other projects have been keeping me very busy and even out of the Brisbane office. In addition, there haven’t been any solid leads about where F&F are breeding (or if they are breeding). The good news is that they are being seen and have been so throughout the year. The sightings have been made throughout the area that is suspected to be their territory (all the places where we have seen them over the years). The same seems to be true for the other city pair.

The problems with the sightings and reports that have at the moment is that they don’t tell us much apart from what the birds are doing and where they are heading. To a large extent, all the new buildings appearing on the city skyline are making tracking of the birds for any length of time a bit of a problem (they don’t always emerge from behind an obstructing ediface where you would expect). The new buildings are getting taller and that will impact on nest site selection. Also, with all the construction, F&F may have moved to a quieter spot. Finally, it is possible that they took advantage of the good rainfall earlier this year and we have just not detected an early nesting. Certainly, some wild pairs have done this in mid-2009. If there are any further developments, I will let you know.
Cheers
Greg

There is a quote I read (and can no longer find) that says when humans cross paths with a wild animal, they together walk the rainbow.  That falcon changed the woman for the rest of her life while showing such tremendous courage.  I thought of our Mariah.  Ah, tissues again

Do these falcons not know that they are supposed to tell us who is who???? At least it is not Easter! ???

On the lonsberry show (local talk show), a guy called to say a falcon was in his neighborhood.  This was a few months ago.  That neighborhood is cobbs hill and hillside ave is not far from there.  I am thinking this type of bird is what this guy saw. 

I wish the picture was larger but I think it is some kind of hawk.

At least the folks in the neighborhood were excited!

Rnews just reported that neighbors in the  area hillside ave area saw a falcon.  Neighbors even took pictures.  I saw the report on the second half of the hour.  I just saw it again and I am not quite sure it is a falcon
