Just brainstorming here.  Would it be easier for one person to go through and just cut and paste say tweets, into a word document.

Looks like tweets show up with a "time stamp" on them.  Easy to spot.  This way they will already be separated.

This is what it looks like on the KFalconcam board.

I did an Advanced Search for one day:

5:48 PM EST, March 9, 2012 - MAKfalcon (MAK): U took off with her leftovers flying over the jail and out of view

5:26 PM EST, March 9, 2012 - MAKfalcon (MAK): U on ledge below NB with dinner

4:36 PM EST, March 9, 2012 - MAKfalcon (MAK): KathyO and I on Broad St. bridge had 1 falcon at. NB and 1 on OCSR top ibeam SE side Both gone now

These were all the tweets from March 9th.

Here's some stuff that I had:

March 5 & 6 = U & Unknown Tiercel
March 7 = U & two Falcons
March 8, 9 & 10 = U & Unknown Tiercel
March 10, 11 & 12 = U & 2 Tiercels
March 13 = U & Unknown Tiercel
Now here's the confusing one!
March 14 = U & 2 Unknowns and an Unknown Female & Archer!
March 15 = U and Archer alone, no others
March 16 = A&U Copulate first time
March 21 = A&U Multiple Copulations plus A is still going to KP
March 26 = Archer returns to nest box with injured leg or legs
OK - I'm missing stuff here
April 6 = Unity hit by car & Beauty returns.  Dot.ca
April 7 & 8 = Beauty and Juvie (Pigott) and Dot.ca battle
April 10 = DC and Pigott at Brighton sight
April 12 = New Tiercel (Canada) shows up at TS with Beauty and they mate multiple times, gone next day.
April 27 = New Tiercel (never ID'd)
April 29 = New Tiercel gone - DC copulates with Beauty (first time?)
From this point forward DC goes back an forth between both nest sites copulating with both Beauty and Pigott

I will post a picture of Lady when I figure out how to do it.

I look forward to seeing her Nora.   

The  RWBB males came into my yard yesterday.  Nice pic Paul!

They love looking out from the ledge even after dark...

What a spectacular view they have 43 floors up!

I'd love to just sit up there and gaze too! Lucky FALCONS!!!

Get your ID to cross the border and maybe when you come for a visit Joycie will sneak you up there like she did me once! 

I don't think I'd leave once I'm up there! 

You don't even need to sneak.  Just go up and use the 43rd floor ladies room.   

So does Mr know she's keeping him at bay for now! Poor guy looks so darn confused. Walking on eggshells. Is this a different kind of bow she does......the bow of "backoff?" I think I'm more confused than he is! 

lol The bow of "backoff"!  I like it!

Like I said, this is just me thinking out loud after watching their behavior. 

Hopefully the Watchers will be able to get out this weekend and we'll know more about what's going on.  Yeah right! 

Hi all,

For those of you in the area, Wild Wings is having their annual Spaghetti Supper on Saturday!  Great food, fun folks and our beloved animals!


Love Spaghetti!!!   Especially when your slurp it and it slaps you in the face! I so need a bib!!

Hey Donna,
A Dear Friend said " the only way to eat spaghetti is Naked" So I guess I won't be going to dinner  

ginha the lurker

Ginha, you are too funny!!!

 

Not sure I can make it this year, but I did go last year.  It was a wonderful time and the spaghetti was delish!

Hello Nora!  So nice to hear from you!  Lady sounds like a wonderful dog.

Hope to see you here more often.   

Take care.

I think your deductions are quite logical Carol.  No harm in keeping this guy around and at arms length either just in case the worst happens and Archer doesn't make it home, backup that feeds you is always good 

I've been told that a female will not chase out a male while she is waiting for the return of her mate.  Like you said, they need to keep their options open, just in case their mate does not return.  and the gifts of food are always good!  lol

This gal needs to take a bath and get her feet cleaned.  I think crud is covering up her band ID.

She was so used to walking around on and digging in Pigeon excrement.  Ewwww!

Either Mr. doesn't get it or he's just plain not interested.  She's doing all but dragging him into the box.  Weird.  ???

Carol P just texted, "Instead of inviting, she's telling him to back off."  That makes sense.  Why else would he not make a move?

Her whining scares him??

I don't think her whining scares him, I'm wondering if her whining is a communication that she is not available and that this nest box is taken???  Of course, who can tell.

In the time I've seen them together:

He brings food and I'm pretty sure she is taking it.  Can't blame her there.  Free food.

He does all kinds of fancy flying for her.  She watches, but doesn't fly with him.

When she was on the Mercury statue, he would make his approach maybe hoping that she would be receptive.  I have yet to see her lift her tail the way we've seen Beauty with Archer and Mariah with Kaver before copulation.

They do defend territory together.  I've seen this a few times, including yesterday.

We do know that Pefa pairs usually become bonded pairs for life, whether with a particular falcon or a territory, is unknown.  I do truly believe she considers Archer to be her bonded mate.

When Cabot-Sirocco did not return, Mariah took awhile to warm up to and accept Kaver as her mate.  She may have acted very like Unity right now. 

This is all just thinking out loud.  Trying to make sense of what's going on.   

An update on Beauty would be wonderful right about now!   

Not yet.  Hopefully soon.   

Sounds like things are improving Patti.  So many good folks out there to help.   

Glad all the animals, except for the one, have returned.  This is really good news.

and as for that special test, well I'm sure you've heard the worst part is the preparation.  Good luck with it.
