Enjoy the day Marcia! 

Somewhere in a forest in a secret location.

http://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/districts/newforest/goshawk_live_nest_cam/ I think we have seen this one before but too lazy to look at all the cam links to find it.

I heard little birds at the nest, suddenly their peeps went into panic mode and sure enough, Beauty was on their tails. Saw it all on Live stream.

This was recorded. I'll look for it this afternoon.

Cool, you can see Beauty swoop down and chase them.

And hubby thought he was telling me something I didn't already know. He is home for few and watched the news.

Do men have blond moments?  Oops delete that. Please don't respond to this post.

Yep, that was good! 

One of the three peregrine falcon chicks in downtown Topeka died Tuesday night, a Westar Energy spokesman said Wednesday.

In a news posting on the company's website, Westar spokesman Nicholas Bundy said the male chick apparently jumped from its box between 8 and 9 p.m. and didn't survive the 10-story fall. 

"We're unsure as to what caused it to jump out of the box," Bundy said.

Bundy said the chick's condition was fine Monday when it was banded. The most dangerous period for peregrines, he said, is from hatching until the falcons are a year old.

The parents of the three falcon chicks that were hatched in May, Nemaha and Boreas, came in April to Topeka from Nebraska. The pair took over the nesting spot on the south side of the Westar Energy building at 818 S. Kansas Ave.

Another falcon couple, Hope and Doorly, had nested at the site since 2004.

Today I first found Beauty on the 2nd arm of the Frontier Communications Tower. She was looking where else...north toward Kodak Park.

Soon after she flew off- to the Times Square building when I arrived she was on top of the main camera.

Beauty didn't stay there for long and flew off giving...

OMG, that 2nd video cracks me up!! Archer just hops off the building! FUNNY!! Nice one MAK!!

So sorry for the sad news,Mak, but it's almost better there wasn't anything in
there to begin with; nothing was really lost; it never was there in the first
place. The sad part is Beauty and Archer had incubated so faithfully waiting
for the little babes. But those wonderful traits as will have them keep trying
again--I guess we just have to see what transpires. After all, tomorrow is a
new day. . . Christiane
