Great news!  I hope she will be freed -- and can be with Pa or another male!

It doesn't get much better that today's outing.  It was a cloudy day, but still mild compared to what it could be on a late November day.  I'll take it!

Very cute!  Did they microchip Happy Feet??

Some folks are hoping the city does not grant permission to take down Skye's building.  Here is the story-- there is a link to the petition:

Look up in the sky it's a bird,it's a plane no it's a UFO

No, It's USAir.

Oh, there sure are UFO's over downtown Rochester.  Lisa McK and I saw one over Kodak Office one Summer evening.  Ask her!    

If they had really wanted to do us a favor, they would have done an alien abduction

Genesee Brewery will be demolishing Skye's building to build a new brew house/visitor center.

I've been reading about the plan to demolish the building and the controversy about the decision but didn't realize it was Skye's building. 

I heard about this.  It makes me very sad.  I truly wish that they could save this building.  It really is beautiful.  Not only because so many of our Peregrines landed there.  It's the last place I saw Mariah before she moved out of the downtown to Irondequoit.  She had caught a pigeon on top of that building and was enjoying dinner.  So many memories.   

I didn't realize it was Skye's building:(  Wish they wouldn't do it and would restore it instead.  It is a beautiful building.  And so many of our falcons loved perching on it

She's a beauty!  So glad you were able to ID her, Paul!!!!
