I totally forgot about this cam, thanks Kris for the video and link. What's with the nest, looks like it was hit with paintballs! Small nest for 2 big falcons, looked bigger when they were tiny.  devil

It does look like paintballs-maybe the way it was decorated?  There were 6 eggs but only 3 hatched.  The one hatchling was lost when the mother flew from the nest with the baby attached to it and it fell to its death. They are beautiful Falcons.

Yes, I remember all this, that poor little one. This thread disappeared when the forum went down. Can't even imagine 6 in there!! Whoa, crowded  and stinky!  Cheesy

MOBILE, Alabama -- A federal judge last week sentenced an Atmore man to probation and ordered him to make $31,000 in restitution for killing migratory birds and trying to sell their feathers on the black market.  Sad

Stormin and Haven Taking Care of Business
May 29, 2012 - Toronto - Canada Square Building - Yonge and Eglinton
Frank Butson Reports:

Canada Square Peregrine report for 28th May 2012

I arrived at 5:22pm and had only five minutes before some action took place. Stormin ( as I later found out) flew above the Rio-Can building and the west over 53 Division Police Station. A few minutes later he was back and flew north over the Yonge-Eglinton intersection. Three minutes later he was back and flew high over 53 Division again and was gone. Twenty minutes later he was back, flew over the nest, quite high and then soared high over RC again only to disappear once more. At least I was seeing him today!

Then it was Haven’s turn and she left the nest ledge at Canada Square and flew to the Rio-can building where she perched seven floors down for a few minutes and then flew west. She was back in a minute and flew over the nest then to RC where she perched and preened for a bit. Fifteen minutes later she flew over the nest and back to her perch on RC. Shortly thereafter she flew over the nest again and back along the west side of RC and between RC and the apartment building and was gone from sight, but not for long. Two minutes later she perched on the wall south of the nest before flying low across Eglinton avenue and flushing the pigeons which hang around at the entrance to the mall. She disappeared from view on the east side of RC. However, she got what she set out for ands three minutes later she had a pigeon firmly clasped in her talons! She struggled a wee bit but managed to fly onto the RC roof where she had a bit to eat.

Whilst she was busy I heard a peregrine call from the west and who should come flying in but Stormin and with his OWN food parcel. I could not tell what it was but it looked pretty substantial He flew over the corner where Haven was eating and then disappeared over the RC roof.

Haven then flew from the roof, with her pigeon, around the east side and disappeared for ten minutes. When she reappeared it was without the pigeon and she landed on the wall north of last year’s nest, Shortly after that she flew to the wall at the nest site. At the same time Stormin was flying around on the east side of RC. Haven remained on her wall above the nest for a half an hour. She flew east of the RC and three minutes later was perched five floors down on the RC building. Another half an hour went by and then Haven flew to the nest and disappeared from sight. That was at 8:00 pm. I left at that point. I was very pleased to see both adults today. In my two and a half hours I did not see any food go into the nest.

B left again at 1:25amnext to mainon the railno wonder she's gone for 4 hours at a clip, she goes some place to sleep.still awake.DC arrives.

After going through the whole night archives, Beauty does not get much sleep, she seems to be on guard all night. When DC arrives for his morning shift, hopefully Beauty has some breakfast and goes to her secret hiding spot for a few hours sleep.
