Hey Suzanne & Don!  Hope you're both doing well.  Thanks for the report on the Syracuse pefas.   wave

Don and I were in Syracuse Saturday and looked for the Syracuse Peregrines.  We found Fancy right away on top of a building downtown, but she flew off when we blinked!  We drove around and found her again on a building at the corner of Washington and Warren.  She kept looking around and preening, and then Groucho flew into sight.  He was stirring up the local pigeons.  He flew behind the buildings and then soared so high we lost sight of him.  We watched Fancy for a while, hoping Groucho would return, but we didn't see him.

On our way out of town on Route 690 a peregrine flew over the car!  When I looked backed I saw what I think was Groucho heading for the buildings in the downtown area, maybe to rejoin Fancy.

A few of us went to this last year.  It was outstanding and the spaghetti was good too.   thumbsup

Hope to make it.

A long time ago, I saw the bats come out from under a bridge near the river walk in San Antonio, TX.  Very cool.  My hotel room was directly across the street from the Alamo.  Imagine my surprise when I arrived late to my hotel and opened the curtains and saw the Alamo.   clap

Interesting Blog from Kate St. John.  She watches and writes about Beauty's mom, Dorothy's nest site.  Thanks to Kathy B for bringing this to my attention.   wave

The Falcon I saw come off the KO Twr just before 7 a.m. was moving quick, heading SW, not directly towards the Times Square bldg.  Seemed to be after something, but I couldn't see anything.  The other day, I saw them kakking and diving on a RTH on the Kodak Bldg 10 and we know that there have been Coopers Hawks and Kestrels in the area.  So they may have gone after one that wandered too close to the TS Bldg. 

When I left work at 3:30 pm, two Pefas were on top of the TS Bldg sitting next to each other.  All was quiet.

Lots of e-chupping

Just a few minutes ago, I heard a crash at nest. Something was there, maybe in the well. Sounded like fighting. Not sure what it was but could not see on cam. Sounds like pigeon being attacked. May have been in the well but it was LOUD!! Then a few minutes later B and T showed up.

I just don't get it, and I never will.  This is so sad.   Sad

I came across a lime green pigeon. No one believes he was real. I saw him several days in a row



Looks like the green Pigeon we saw at the Walmart Plaza in Irondequoit last year.  Have you been seeing him recently Nan?  Where?  If so, and this is the same Pigeon, I'm glad he's survived.

Very cool yellow Cardinal!
