Obviously it's too late to put a nest up at KP. I was hoping for one this Winter, knowing LP was still there and would probably attract a mate. I hope, if possible, she finds a good spot with some sort of protection, to keep  them stable. Will the DEC step in when and if she has eggs? Has there been no word on a positive ID. Has the DEC contacted any one about this? Just wondering why this is taking so long when they knew about it a year ago. I just feel bad for her. It's been done before, a falcon has eggs on a structure with no bedding, so to speak and the chicks have survived. Maybe this will be the case here too. I hope what ever happens, all goes well with her.

Matt Perry reports that Maya, the female Peregrine falcon that has lived in the area the last few years, has been seen frequently in downtown Utica the last two weeks.

She has been flying around the State Office Building and perched on her nest ledge at the M&T Bank. No second falcon has been confirmed, so Perry thinks she hasn’t found a replacement for her original mate, Tor, who – or which? - is believed to have died in February, 2010. The hope is that Maya will encounter another Peregrine as they migrate through area, and that nesting attempt will be made in the spring.

Sightings of falcons can be reported to Perry at mperry63@roadrunner.com. He is especially interested in sightings of two Peregrines together. He cautions that there is a starling in the area that has been mimicking a falcon call very well.

I could just post the same pic every day, who'd know!! 

Jubilee laid her second egg yesterday (3/16) at approximately 2:30 PM. Maybe 2 is it for her.
