And I'd say it was Kathy Q that MAK saw from the bus station!

That would be Kathy Q as both Joyce and Tracy from CPF say it's her.  foxbinocs

From Kathy Q's page: "Thanks Donna. I think that building isn't far from Lucas Oil Stadium and KQ is known to hang out there (likes to sit on the sign or is crazy about the Colts). So it is more than likely her but who knows? What a great shot - thank her for sharing it and for taking the time to look for them - how cool!"

[UPDATE] As Hurricane Sandy barrelled up the Atlantic coast, thousands of seabirds came along for the ride.
"They actually get into the eye," said Jeffrey Gordon, president of the American Birding Association.

CHARLOTTE, NC (WBTV) -
A man got a surprise while driving down I-77 in Huntersville when he says he hit "something big".  He stopped and pulled over, not knowing what it was.

He found a large Great Horned Owl stuck in his grill.  The owl was wide-eyed and alive.  A mouse – presumably what the owl had swooped down to grab for dinner – was lying beneath the car.

Thanks Margaret!  wave  MAK's bus of course, left an hour later than it was suppose to, (what else is new)? They waited for a person who never showed up. This bus has no outlets or WiFi so she will try and get some zzzzz's. Not sure now what time she will arrive at her next destination! She said NEVER AGAIN on a bus! Can't blame her.  Sad

This is a worse nightmare than our Puerto Vallarta trip! Hope she does get some sleep-this is exhausting just reading about it! BTW-doesn't she have a bus ticket for her return trip too?

Yes she does!  Shocked

 Quaint town was largely spared from Hurricane Sandy damage!

In the end, however, most said that they had electricity, utilities and internet throughout Sandy’s wrath.

!!! Inturder Alert!
November 02, 2012 - Etobicoke - Sun Life Centre

Kathy Reports:

I have not seen Jack since before the storm, not unusual given he’s split between two sites however O’Connor has being acting strangely this week and perching on areas she doesn’t normally perch on.

Reading Tracy’s report this morning about a territorial battle in Brampton though may explain the adult female interloper in our territory here yesterday.  O’Connor was on the web cam facing south when I went out to check out on her yesterday morning at 7 am.  At the same time as I was facing east I clearly saw a large female falcon fly over the subway area at Bloor Islington heading for the apartment buildings there.

My first thought was phew as I glanced at O’Connor thinking it was great as the other female was out of her line of sight and hopefully she was just passing through.  I headed inside and into a meeting when I heard the clear sound of a kacking and unfortunately couldn’t leave to go to a window to see what was going on.

I checked several times later on and no sign of any falcons but I did see O’Connor before I left the office later in the afternoon.  I can’t say for sure that she ran into the other female but that was my first thought upon reading the Brampton report this morning.  This intruding female was flying quite low, not high up the way they usually do when they are just ‘passing through’.

!!! Freddie on the “Aâ€
November 03, 2012 - Windsor - Ambassador Bridge

Dennis Patrick Reports:

This afternoon we drove down by the River, looking for the pair that has been spotted on the letters of the building but no sign of any Peregrine. We then went to the Bridge, nothing there so we waited for a few minutes and Freddie flew in and landed on the first A of Ambassador. Since the report of the sighting of General Brock in Detroit we are thinking maybe the other three are on their way as well. We’ll keep you updated on any sights we have of the Peregrines here in Windsor.
