Is this the first sighting of Archer in a few days? I thought he might have left the area. So you saw him tonight? Maybe he will hang around for a few more weeks...or maybe the winter to defend his territory? Is that in the realm of possibility? He does have two nest sites to protect/
Not sure exactly how long it's been since we last saw Archer. A couple days I think. This is definitely not unusual. He may be going on day trips and the Watchers are only downtown a very small part of the day. So, we can't be sure he hasn't been around over the past days.
Both A&B were on the jail tower tonite, Beauty above Archer. Both looking south.
Since he has migrated the past few winters, I believe he will continue to do so. But of course we can't be 100% sure what he'll do. We'll keep Watching!
