Three falcons here this morning, Angel, Jack and Elena!!  Last Thursday and Friday, Jack spent most of the days here with Angel in close proximity and no sign of any juveniles at all.  Although I didn’t see any bowing and scraping myself, there was alot of time spent together on the nest ledge between them.

This morning when I arrived Elena was on the ledge beneath the ADP sign and Jack was on the sign, with Angel on the opposite side on the nest ledge.  A few minutes later Jack departed to chase breakfast and Elena immediately flew to his perch on the ADP sign as if to say ‘about time you gave me back my spot!’.

Elena is now on the sign and mom is in front of the nestbox preening and no doubt Jack is off somewhere enjoying breakfast!

If anyone is out in the Port Hope area, keep your eyes peeled for a female falcon named Quest.  She won’t be hard to spot as she has a transmitter on her for tracking purposes.  She is daughter to Mariah and Kaver of Rochester and her location shows she has spent the past few months up in that area and even ventured into Etobicoke in the past few weeks.  It would be great if someone spotted her and took some photos for all her followers!

And Archer was also almost her step father  :

 

What a great area!  Kind of glad with the activity that Quest is not there.  Still, it seemed so perfect for her -- course from my perspective

Really nice blog! 

It's always interesting when there is a camera

BUt I noticed that clicking on the pictures doesn't make them look good.  Out of focus.  Am I doing something weird?

It's funny... I saw a picture of Mariah as a puppy.  When I saw her name, I thought "what are the chances that a dog would have that special name.  I was debating whether I should get her as a companion for my 12 year old shar pei Harley.  I thought it might be disruptive to him so I didn't.  He died later that year and Mariah was returned to the breeder because the family was allergic to her fur.  So I got the call and visited her.  Her and Bentley's breeders  (they know each other )felt the two of them would get along and they were right. 

Bentley's breeder used to follow the falcon cam, not sure if she still does.

Wild coincidences!

Yikes, that is a popular place!  Wonder if the wild weather blew her in there?

These are pictures of Tai Shan and his mom -- and his napping mother

And this is Bentley, aka Mr. B, who turned 3 today.  I got him as a baby and he is a blue shar pei.  I didn't name him either but because I have a Mariah, his middle name is Skye!
