Cams are down and we may miss watching her raise her babies.

Unfortunately the cable connecting one the cameras appears to be disconnected, this may have been a result of the weather. We have contacted the DEC to help us reconfigure the cable but we may not be able to fix this unil the banding. Sorry.. Wish we could do more.

You can never have too many cameras.

Welcome, robsonresearch!

 

Only 5 days left, and I'm $125 short of my goal of $1000. So close!

and I want to Thank Beauty for picking Rochester for her home, winning our respect and LOVE, and for training DC to be a good mate. way to go girl!

Now here's a question to ponder. Did beauty pick Rochester, or did she merely follow Archer?

and also the paparazzi that chase her around town when she does leave. 

oh camera meister, great computer guru we Thank you for keeping everything running smooth you are our hero 

You're welcome, but let's not forget that this is a team.

Thank June Summers and the Genesee Valley Audubon Society.
Thank Rich Calabrese and his team at Times Square Associates.
Thank Jenny Landry and the DEC for their stewardship of Peregrine falcons.
Thank the veterinarians and rehabilitators who take care of sick and injured falcons.
Thank Animal Control and the RPD for keeping our streets safe for falcons and watchers alike.
Thank Netsville and the other sponsors of Rfalconcam.
Thank the many donors who contribute generously.
Thank the reporters, bloggers, and tweeters who inform the public about our falcons.
Thank our many watchers who follow our falcons 365 days a year.

And thank you for caring.

While we're thanking the whole cast and crew, let's not forget ....

Although the nest box is no longer at the Kodak Tower, that is where it all began.  There were a whole bunch of folks, including Brad Carney, Kenn Martinez, Tom Hoehn, and many others, that put those first cameras up that took those first pictures of Mariah and her first mate Cabot-Sirocco.  Without them, we wouldn't have the fantastic Rfalconcam that we now have.

Also all the folks, including Mike Allen from the DEC, June Summers and myself, who installed the two nest boxes (after the nest box was taken down at Kodak), one at the Powers Bldg and one at the Times Square Bldg.  We all know that the falcons decided that the Times Square nest box was the best location.

There are so many people that are no longer involved that made all of this possible.    

Technically, BC was thanking those responsible for "keeping everything running smooth" today. That's why I didn't bring up the parties that started it all.

But if we truly want to give thanks to the "creators," let's not forget those members of the anonymous unaccountable management structure at Kodak who pulled the plug on Birdcam in 2006, two years before the nest box was removed from Kodak tower. Without them, there surely would be no Rfalconcam.

and also the paparazzi that chase her around town when she does leave.

Well, it didn't take long to make the $750 goal. You folks have donated $850. THANK YOU!

I wouldn't have thought it possible at first, but now I think I can actually reach the $1000 mark!

Dorothy's daughters by Kate St. John.

"Beauty is Dorothy’s most photographed offspring."

It’s true that Beauty is Dorothy’s most photographed offspring. In fact, she’s the world’s most photographed Peregrine falcon, and quite possibly the world’s most photographed bird. Maybe even the most photographed living thing.

   I had no idea she was but it doesn't surprises me. After all, she is the Beautyful one!!!!   

It helps that she has 1-5 cameras photographing her every single minute she is near the nest box.

Yes! Thanks to all of you I reached my goal with 10 days to spare!

So now I have increased my goal to $750. If you've already given, thank you so much. If you haven't, please consider making a small donation and join the fight against heart disease.

Another near miss for a young falcon. Better than last time.
