No matter how big or small, with feathers or fur, our pets mean the world to us.  Sorry you had to go through such heartbreak in the last days Caitie. rainbow

There is a guy that travels by boat out to the Galloo Islands (near that light house), from a "marina" near me. If I see his boat docked next time I'm up there, I will ask him to keep an eye out for Quest when he's out there. The Galloo's have been home to cormorants, and controversy, in the decade past.

Carol P provided this link.  You can see the cormorants in this photo.

Did you see what's out there in the water?  On Nov 28 and Dec 2 it looks like she might be hanging around a light house, and a historic one at that!

Dana - you out did yourself...all in one day - WOW!  I can't believe the shots you caught.  Great feeding documentary with the RTH,  and the Merlin is precious.

Other than Wild Wings, I've never seen an urban Merlin.  Is this an adult?

I was seeing feathers flying around so I went to Cam 2 and sure enough, Beauty was plucking away.

(movie)   You can see her plucking here and  then fly off.

clap clap Yay Donna!  So glad you confirmed she is still hanging around the nestbox.  I never see her there in person.

Don't forget to check the comments in Imprints.  Lennoxman has such a sense of humor and his last post included pics from a peregrine's eye view from the top of the Lennox Power Plant where the nestbox is. 

Here are his last 2 posts:

Here are some pictures that I promised from my last post. They give you an idea of Quest’s environment right now.

Happy Thanksgiving neighbours! You all know the term “it’s like searching for a needle in a haystack”. Well, I’m going to change that to “it’s like searching for a Quest near a smoke stack”. According to her transmitter, Quest has been frolicking around here the last couple of days. I’ve looked high and low but my searches are fruitless. I think I’ll make an appointment with my Optometrist to get my eyes checked  There’s a lot of waterfowl activity in the wetland these days so I’m sure Quest is indulging in this all-you-can eat buffet. Since I can’t provide you with any pictures of Quest yet, I’ll provide you with some images that could be viewed through her eyes while she is at Lennox. I’ll post them later today.

I only caught her for a moment, but Rhea Mae is still around!



 clap   

Sightings of Mariah...Beauty...Rhea Mae...all on Thanksgiving.  Yay!!  But no Quest.  Hopefully Lennoxman will find her soon!

It's up, but I need to make some changes to comply with new storage restrictions.

Thanks Shaky, I'm an addict when it comes to your viewer.  (no comments please)  silly

Well, this is not a comment...it's a fact...I'm thankful you are addicted.  We may be out there watching in person...but you balance it by watching online!

 I'm thankful that QUEST has someone watching out for her...even if she is wearing a cloaking device.

Joyce



LOL..like in Harry Potter....love it Joyce.

I have to thank Lennoxman up in Canada - he is the one who referred to Quest wearing a "cloaking device" (see Imprints comments), but I got a chuckle out of that too.  It's perfect for her!

I can't believe the nestbox from June 01 to June 20.  I guess this mama peregrine needs a lesson in housekeeping!   

Thank you for putting this album together.
