The person who shot her needs to be in captivity

Rhea Mae? 

Awesome, Carol!!!! 

Good for you, Ei!  It is a hard time of year.  I had two baby birds in my dogs' kennel -- both were dead, very few feathers and eyes closed.  I buried both.  And I had another baby bird hiding near one of my flower pots.  It was new to flying so it was fluttering near my feeders.  I sure hope it made it.  There are wandering feral cats near my house:( My neighbors feed them so they keep reproducing

Too bad they can't send her here or to CPF.  Course if she were here, Archer would visit

And another one

There has to be an alternative ???

Gus vs. Pool

OMG,  in years past, we have had some very INTERESTING sights to see when falcon watching was "quiet."

Be safe, dear Lady!!!   

Happy birthday, Annie!!!!!!!!!  Watching those falcons fledge will offset any creaking!!!!

I've been pretty absent this year and I do miss having young falcons (though that first week of fledging is just ).  I really am not bothered by anthropomorphizing.  I probably lean in that direction at times.  Who knows what animals feel and think?  But that said, I think it is awesome that we have falcons though this one male- two females situation coupled with no babies at either site is perplexing and sad.  It is just absolutely awesome that we know where so many of our M/K offspring are.  I only wish we would know where Mariah is.  I miss her like crazy.  And Kaver, who I miss and wish was banded

That said, the one wonderful constant is the watchers and that makes any gathering (whether it be in a parking lot or a restaurant) really fun!

Well, you all know me after all these years...excessive anthropomorphizing tends to get my hackles up...
I cannot find it in me to feel sorry for Beauty, Archer or Unity because I don't believe they feel sorry for themselves....
I feel very sorry for US that there weren't any fluffballs this year...

What she said!

Seriously, I'm pretty much with Ei on this...it's too bad there weren't young peregrines in Rochester to watch, both for the sake of the local watchers and the remote ones, but I don't feel comfortable projecting my feelings on Beauty, Archer, or Unity.  Also like Ei, it's been hard-going lately, I've lost both parents and a job in the last two years and my worry list is full enough.

Patti,  I am so very sorry!!!
