Thanks everyone!  This was a birthday with a zero at the end, so my sisters made sure I was tortured sufficiently, starting with my decorated cubicle at work (my little sister works at the same company), and lovely accessories they made me wear to dinner tonight (an over-the-hill lei, a tiara, some lovely glasses, a couple of blinking lights, a balloon for the back of my chair, etc.).  Jeane organized the family dinner, and it was lots of fun!

You're 20!  You go girl!   lol

Peregrines are still listed as "endangered" in New York.  Are they in Ohio?  At the very least, they are listed as "threatened".  I cannot believe this is legal.  Has C&C or anyone in Ohio reported this to, I don't know, someone that can check into it?

This just seems so wrong in so many ways.   Sad

The first "Name That Prey" of the season!

First thought was goldfinch, but it's too gold to my eyes

Shades or KAVER!  Is that a blue feather I see on the far left, outside of the nest tray?   happy

I don't even know what to say about this.   Angry

"Thank you for the perspective, Joyce.   You are a master (mistress?) of understatement if you say that a 5K bill was a "mistake".  I would be incoherent!
I do check in on CPF for Quest updates, so I will keep us all apprised.  
It's time to update the Quest tee shirts!   Can it end with "happily ever after"?  
 Grin" - Margaret

We're working on it!   Wink

and no, it wasn't me that said M&K were from Canada.  Since they were both unbanded, there is no way to know where they came from.

6804  Rochester Falcons / Rochester Falcon Offspring / Re: Quest and Kendal - Toronto/Don Mills on: 09-May-11, 05:53:38 PM
Have you been in contact with CPF?  In your opinion, do you think a webcam could be up and running prior to hatch?   (At Don Mills and at Yellow Pages site?) That would be great!

Not sure of the timing at either site.  They've been working hard on updating Rhea Mae and Tiago's camera at the Sheraton.  It looks great!   clap

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PATTI!  HOPE YOU HAD A WONDERFUL DAY!
6806  Rochester Falcons / Rochester Falcon Offspring / Re: Quest and Kendal - Toronto/Don Mills on: 09-May-11, 05:24:49 PM
Margaret - They could definitely put cameras on the Harlequin Bldg. and point them at the ledge across the street.  Not sure what they're planning.

I truly hope that Lawrie is ok.  That she is flying free and taking a break from raising young.  Be safe Lawrie where ever you are.   wub2

Pigeon Poop we believe.  PPH stands for Pigeon Poop Hole.  It looks like it's been there and built up for a very long time.  The Falcons don't seem to mind it.

Great pictures, Dana.  What is that material in the scrape?    Did they bring it in or was it there?    It certainly does look like a nest site.

The battle between Archer and the 3rd Falcon was very high up.  Impossible to see bands.  I do believe it was an adult and that it was very close in size to Archer, a Tiercel.

auntiewood (grannywood): KP falcon rpt- both falcons headed out after a 3rd adult falcon.  Still waiting for return.

Any idea about the third adult falcon?  Bands seen?  Could it be the Char Bay falcon?

Margaret - Joyce and I got some pics of Unity in the same spot she went to today, but it was pouring rain and the lighting was horrible.  Even so, Joyce's pics that day showed the bands and we thought it was Unity back then, but we couldn't be 100% sure.

Today MAK & Joyce got pics of Unity on a bright, sunny, Mothers Day, afternoon.  So now we know for sure.  Welcome Unity from Toledo, OH!   clap

Good job Joyce & MAK!   thumbsup

wnyfalconfan (Joyce): Joyce and MAK just finished quick view of pictures. Both of us confirmed Lady Pefa is 71/H "Unity" from Toledo. Pics coming.

At last, Lady Pefa has a name! It's a good name too.  Is the first clear verification of her band?  I seem to recall that watchers -- I think it was Carol -- mentioned that it was probably Unity a few months back. 
Good names; Archer is the "beau" of Beauty and Unity.  Another romance novel on the way?
