Love it!  Too bad Kendal didn't have food with him, he might have gotten the idea of what to do with it.  Amazing that Quest being a first time momma, has caught on totally with little Harlequin.   

Happy Birthday Marcia!

Hope you had a wonderful day!

 

Here's a picture saved from the new Questcam.  Quest over little Harlequin on 6/2/11.

That's great, Carol!
Who'd have ever guessed that Quest would have her own show on Bodice-Ripper Central?
EXCELLENT! Thanks so much to all who contributed to this effort!

I know!  Too funny Dale!  I think you should come up with a Harlequin cover staring Quest and Kendal. Hahahaha!     Just kidding!

From my good friend Kathryn B at Harlequin.  Awesome!   

Good afternoon,

And Beauty left NB.  Did he leave KP

I left a few moments before 8:45 pm and Archer was at KP with Unity preening on a still.  He could have left right after I did.  It only takes him a few minutes to fly downtown and with the high winds behind him, it could have been faster.

Beauty, busy in the nest box.

Thank you for the great pictures Bonnie & so glad the transmitter is being reused. Hope wasn't injured was she or did they just decide to use it on her for tracking. And I see Skye had it before - I do not know about that story - is there a place with that info I can read about.

Skye was the 2005 fledgling who was given a transmitter.  It was a project of the Migration Research Foundation.  Sadly, she only made it to early September 2005.  She died in Lucknow, ON.  You can find the full details on the MRF Peregrine page


(Yes, Carol, we really do need to knuckle under & get the history project on track)

 

(I know.   

Can someone change the Homepage for KFC...someone on fb says it's misleading.. Thanks.

Done!

The final brooding chart for this clutch.



Thanks again to Ei and ginha.

Thanks Ei & Ginha!  You gals always do such a great job tracking all of this.  Good job!   

To all our servicemen and servicewomen around the world, we salute you!  Thank you for all you do, so that we can live free and safe.  THANKS TO ALL OF YOU!   

You can see an injury to Beauty's left wing.

Nice pics Mark!  and definitely NOT off-topic.

I saw Beauty soaring higher and higher this afternoon.  Could not detect any injury to either of her wings.  She was flying beautifully.   

 
  to Quest & Kendal for their first hatch!
  Soon this little one will be running up and down that ledge and taking his/her first flight!
 Welcome to the world little one! 
 You have no idea how important you are to us here in Rochester, your momma's birthplace. 
 

I am also wondering where Beauty is.  I hope we get a report from the on-the-scene watchers tonight. 
B was last seen before 5 pm tonight is what I am gathering from the reports. Is that correct?  But she has not been seen since then? 
But looking at watcher reports, it seems that Archer is bonding more to Unity,  and Beauty is or has been rejecting Archer? Sad at all of this is, it is fascinating to watch. 
.      We are so used to watching them on camera that it is hard to not "see" what is going on-- especially at this time of year when it is hatching time/even banding time during other years!

We may never know all the answers to this year's happenings, but it is one for the archives!

By now you'll have seen Beauty is on her favorite perch...5th column on Xerox south side.  The watchers are stretched pretty thin right now.

Keep in mind that we're not seeing everything...as much time as Archer has spent at KP today, he's been pretty much at TS full time for the past few days.  He's just bonding like any peregrine would with his mate(s) at this point in the year.  Whether any of it will produce more eggs remains to be seen.  But they're all just doing what peregrines do.

Agreed Ei!  and remember this is a holiday weekend.  Yet more drama on a holiday weekend.  What is up with that!  Many Watchers are not available that would normally be out and about.  I remained at KP because two falcons were there.  Joyce said that she would check on Beauty when she dropped off MAK.  I'm really glad she found her.

We could sure use help if any locals would like to volunteer.   

Man I wish I were a local!

I wish you were too Donna!  You would make a wonderful Falcon Watcher!   

Thanks, it's what I want to be when I grow up! 

You have to be growed up?  No one told me that!
