Bless all of you watchers!  Joyce, Carol, MAK, Larry, and everyone and anyone else.  Thank you, once again, for what you do.  You run all over in some crazy weather and keep an eye on our precious falcons.
What a few days you have had.   Thank you!

What does all this stooping and aggression mean?  Is it Dot.Ca back and showing aggression and when was UT last seen?  Was it yesterday afternoon? 

Welcome back Kat! 

Yes!  What MAK said!  Welcome back, Kat!   
We sure welcome your eyes on our Quest and Kendal as this new season begins.   Your reports, and Donna's captures of cam shots, make my day.   
Congrats on your new  position that is keeping you busy, but I hope you can keep an eye out the window at Don Mills!  You have a wonderful location and I hope that all of you at Harlequin are still excited at Quest and Kendal nesting right outside your window!

Any more on signs of a battle?  I hope not.  Especially after seeing the pic of UT   at NB with sloppy red  feet and face. 

New still wet egg!!

Cool!  

Is this Dorothy?  Beauty's mother?

I'll have what she's having.

 
That is the first time I've used that icon!  Too funny, Shaky!   
We can only hope!

Maybe taking them to the library to teach them how to use reference BOOKS! (Not to mention the Card Catalogue...)

Nah.  They don't teach 'em how to use the library any more! 
 
There is a College Fair at Riverside Convention center though!   

Well, I'll be!  

This guy is  rocket man for a number of reasons!  
"Love is in the air...".  What was that song?

I just wanted to share some pictures. I haven't shared pictures for quite a long time, but for some reason, I went through pictures going back to Jan 2012 and picked out some of my favorites. About half are nature pics.

Breathtaking photos, Lou.  I am a long time fan of your photo work, and it's been too long since we have seen your photos.  They are gorgeous, extraordinary, and rare.! Thank you for sharing.

Love is in the air....!  He is so tiny compare to our Beauty.   I do wish he was banded, but if they have babies, that's all that matters.      Great pictures , Mak, and fun to watch.     I hope it is a match.

Blinded by the light as Rochesterians come out of their winter hibernation!

  Ya goto that right.  We are not used to such blue skies and sunshine!  It is wonderful to see!     

 
Happy Birthday, Donna!  I hope you had a wonderful  day and that you have a fabulous, falcon-filled year  this year.   Thank you for all that you do for us from your far away perch in NJ!   You rock!

   Many more happy years to come!

Thank you, Dana, for the collage.  That one picture  --- the coloration on the head - looks familiar?   Do you think it's a bird that has been around?  Lucky you, to be right there with a great camera.  Thank you.

Falcons on Medley Center again!  Cool!   

Could this be the LT/KP falcon and maybe the one was downtown with Beauty the other day?  We'll never know...unless maybe these are banded?   WOW.  Lots of action.

Good to see them both at the nest box more often!  I know it's solar but do we know if Quest's transmitter still works?

No one who posts to this forum knows if it still works.

I didn't know that Quest's transmitter no longer was being picked up. When was the last time data was picked up?   Because she's been so stable, I hadn't looked for the transmitter map.
