I am always fascinated by animal behavior. Never heard about this before Kris. Thanks for posting. 

Beauty and Dot.ca visit the Powers bldg nest box. Lots of vocalizations.

Thanks Alison! Love seeing her visit!  

I love seeing her too, Carol! Visits have been sparse lately, and it has been a while since I have seen both Rhea Mae and Tiago at the nest. It's hard to believe that Rhea Mae will be twelve years old this year.

I know. Time goes by way too fast! 

Thanks Alison! Love seeing her visit!

Just a few of the words that describes you.  I was blessed to visit with you while you were earthbound.  Now your spirit flies with those that left us before you. Fly free beautiful Erin. I will miss you.

I am so sorry for her loss.

 

Here we are. Another New Year has arrived. Time for the Rochester Falcon Watchers to toast a successful 2018 falcon season!

We'll gather in the usual spot on Broad St. in front of the Blue Cross Arena at 11:00 am. Dress warm! It's going to be very cold!

Hope you can join us! Happy New Year!

He's a very handsome lad and she's gorgeous! 

Thanks for my birthday wishes.  I've treated 3 different days, one lunch, one breakfast and one dinner.  Yum

Good for you Ruth! 

So sad. 

Lucky has a new brother! After losing his sister, Justice, earlier this year, a baby cockatiel named Snow has joined our family! 

If I can figure out how to post pics, I will do so soon. 

Big yellow feet foot prints in the snow! Someone has been visiting. 

A very happy birthday Ruth! Enjoy your day!

 

Well here we are again! Where does the time go? Another holiday season for all our falcon fans to celebrate!

A very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you! Enjoy the holiday season with friends and loved ones!

 

Hope you had a wonderful birthday Bobbie!

 

Welcome NE18!
