A falcon just flew up to TS on the ledge.

Good thing we installed this camera. Otherwise we'd never know the falcon was there.

So is Archer  sitting up above Beauty as we sit watching her labor?  Joyce spotten a falcon flying, and this latest pic from camera shows a falcon sitting above NB?

:-)  I know that you watchers are super-human and all over the place -- Buffalo, TS, KP - and I say that with the  utmost admiration - but Joyce, at 8:30 at night, it's dark out, how do you see a falcon to the NB?   I drive over the bridge in daylight, and  have to work hard to keep my car on the road and still eyes to the skies....all I can say is I want your eyes and your coordination!   
 

Breath-taking shots, Lou.  I don't even know what else to say.   
 

Just a note to say that the embroidered Rfalconcam jacket is now available.  Just in time to order for your Spring falcon watching!! 

Lou

It's very nice but that would be a Winter coat for me. 

I just ordered the long sleeve and the short sleeve tee with the new logo, and I ordered the baby  tee for my newborn grandson with his name -- appropriately named -- on the back:  Hunter!  Already told my daughter that we have to have his picture taken with the new tee.   The jacket does look nice though....

Beauty just left NB, but watching Ustream, I kept hearing loud roaring type noises.  Noisier than the normal traffic noise we hear during the week.  Beauty kept looking around; a little more agitated than normal? 
Did anyone else notice that?  Are they demolishing more of Midtown today?

WHOA!   I've been a follower ...maybe called a lurker, but a genuine supporter of our falcons for a long time, and I just had a start here.... maybe we need a new thread....perhaps   FOLLOWING  BUFFALO
FALCONS so that we can track when the reports are coming from  Buffalo or elsewhere.     This startled me just now.   
Oh!  MAK's in Buffalo!

OY..Poor Lady!

Donna, is this the same "Lady" osprey that had such a tough time last year, and had to make the long migration?

Yes Margaret, the same Lady! She made it.

Thank you, Donna.  Wasn't sure if my memory served me. Aren't birds amazing?  Their strength, fortitude and ability to survive  in desperate conditions is impressive.   As a native Long Islander,  I remember  seeing osprey nests on telephone/light poles all over Shelter Island and Sag Harbor area.  Amazing birds.

It is disconcerting when you first see that Main Cam and the egg isn't visible.

OY..Poor Lady!

Donna, is this the same "Lady" osprey that had such a tough time last year, and had to make the long migration?

Egg!!!

Yay!  

 
YAAAYYYY!  Congratulations to our Beauty and Archer for the first egg of the season!  I knew it would be today!  So happy!

Okay, who gets credit for taking that beautiful falcon picture on the home page when you first come to the website?

Lou

 

...and of which of our falcons is that a picture?  Personally, I am hoping it is a picture of Mariah!

To  Shaky and all the team members involved in reformatting this site -- thank you!  The  Home Page is awesome!  The entire Falcomcam is  a joy to peruse.
I've always been in awe of your dedication, but you outdid yourselves with this one.   
Please note I also include in this thanks -- the dedicated watchers on the street, and of course the stars of this site -- the PeFas!   ...those with us and those far and near, and  those in our  memories and thoughts. 

Beauty has been in the nest box for some time.
Egg time?

She looks miserable...

She looks like she's under a spell!  

She does...she looks as if she's in a daze.   "Egg-daze "are here! 

Whatchulookinat?

She knows ...more than we do.  I think I voted for the wrong date.   Beauty is going to lay our first egg by tomorrow night...and then it's going to snow!   

Our Beauty is at the nestbox.
