At last I know where to look for the local peregrine cliff nest!

I have known for years that there was a nest on the cliffs of the Shawangunk Ridge near me. It makes the news every year when they close off the climbing routes around it, but since I don't rock-climb I had no idea where to look.

This is a fuzzy view of the ridge-all cliffs along the top. There's another like it to the left and another set on the other side.



Anyway, one of my co-workers is an avid climber but we work opposite shifts. We had a get together the other day so I finally had a chance to ask him. "Sure! It's right over the carriage road at the hairpin turn!"
Turns out he's a birder too and has a well known naturalist from the DEC on speed dial. Since I DO NOT rock climb he showed me a photo of the area and where the closures happen during breeding season. So now I know where to look. The most open area without trees will need a spotting scope, but I hope I can at least see some whitewash to give me more clues.

Very exciting!

Banding at Lakeridge Hospital in Ottawa - home of Diamante's daughter Alfrieda (confirmed again by photos that show her band):

835 grams female band number 18 over AB with Yellow tape on silver band named Jessie
585 grams male band number C  over 36 with Blue tape on silver band
760 grams female band number 19 over AB with Red tape on silver band

They are working on getting a web cam set up for next Spring for this site!

Just posted this on the CPF FB page, but I'll post again here...

Do you know if her mate is still Simcoe? 63/X black/black hatched Canada Square 2012 to Stormin' & Haven?

I just saw a photo on FB of Eva  19/AB hatched at Oshawa Lakeridge Hospital! I love when these circles continue!
