Oh that poor girl! So so so sad! Now we have a whole new pair!! Things can change quickly in a Peregrines world! 

Carol, did Jenny say anything about a possible nest for that site?

No she didn't Donna.

While we were working on the cameras this afternoon, I spoke with Jenny from the DEC about Luzerne.  Jenny told us that Luzerne was found on the sidewalk next to the Seneca Towers.  Due to the trauma found on her body, it looked like she hit the building.

I thought everyone would like to know.   

   

Have a fun and safe trip Patricia!

Some visitors to the nest box!  Crazy pigeons!

[BIG BOO]

Thank goodness for those good Samaritans.   

A BIG BOO to those teenagers.   

Fly Free SW.  You will be missed.   

 

Falcon (looks like it might be Beauty) on the base of the Mercury Statue as reported by Shaky.

Happy Birthday BC!  Have a wonderful day!

This one's just for fun!  Since our young falcons have flown the coop and things have been fairly quiet, why don't we choose which toys, out of the 12 finalists this year, we would like to see make it into Strong's National Toy Museum, which is located here in Rochester, NY.

Choose your three favorites and let's see how close we come to the two inductees which will be announced on November 6th.

Caitie - I remember Wild Bill very well from back in the Kodak Birdcam days.  Glad to hear that he is doing well.  Thanks!   

Rochester Falcon Watchers Kathy O, Lisa McK, Dana and Carol P visited with Pigott and her mate this past weekend, Saturday, 9/20/14.  We saw nothing until they both flew in from the north at 3:00 pm.  They were very active with each other, both visiting at the nest box twice and ee-chupping up a storm.  We remained until after the sun set, when Pigott tucked into a ledge below her nest box and her mate settled into a nook on a nearby church.  Pretty sure, by the look of all the white wash below these spots, that this is where they roost at night.  It was a fun day spent with our Pigott and her beau.   

Bet this was quite the treat getting to see them like this! 

It was a huge treat to see both of them interacting with each other Patricia.  Can't wait to see them again.

    If those NY condo people could read this and understand that all the falcons want is a 'home', just like them.  Somewhere safe where they can raise a family - in many ways they aren't that different from us.  Perhaps they'd understand what life is like for our poor birds.

That is such a sad situation Carly.
