I spoke to the rehabber this afternoon.  Jemison is doing really well.  Yesterday he didn't eat much, but he made up for it today, eating everything placed in front of him all by himself.  This is very good news.

If all goes as planned, he will be X-Rayed tomorrow.  I'll continue to post updates when I get news.

Main Cam caught some gorgeous shots!

Not much more to add on Jemison's condition.  Today was a day of rest for our young fledgling and quail, I believe, was on the menu.  They want to stabilize him and make sure he's eating ok.

Rest well Jemison.

Do you know if they did xrays and have an idea of what type of injury it is?

Kris - As far as I know, they were going to wait a couple days to let him rest and eat before doing the XRays.  We're just so very lucky to have him in a place where a Vet is available to look after him, especially during the holiday weekend.

hissing and nipping!  Did he eat a snake?

hoping it's just a sore wing.

thank you so very much, Carol and ALLLLLL the watchers!!

what's on the menu? quail?

Quail is definitely on the menu.

Kathy O reports that Callidora is on top of the Time Square Bldg, base of SE wing.

Update from Jim P: Jemison looks good per the Vet.  Dana has seen him too.

No one has any idea what happened.  The way I understand it is that the police let MAK know that they had a Falcon down on the grass in front of the Crown Plaza.  By the time she drove over there, Animal Control was there and had already placed him in a carrier.  They told her they would be taking him to the Vet.

Kathy O and Diane were watching from the top of the South Ave. garage and they didn't see anything either.

Dana and Jim P are there.  Hopefully we'll hear something soon.

From Jim P. who is at the Vets with Jemison.  "J looks fine so far.  Updates as I get more information."

The Watchers have just reported that Jemison was found on the lawn in front of the Crown Plaza on State St., not far from the Time Square Bldg.  It is unknown if he was injured or not, but he is on his way to the vet for a check-up.

Hopefully all will be ok and we'll hear good news soon.

Kathy just called to say that she and MAK have all 4 Falcons in sight.

Kathy had to go to the top of the South Ave. garage to see Callidora.  Couldn't see her from the street.

That's good Janet.   

Now for part 2.

Said person returned today.  I hadn't seen him the first time, but I had heard his story.  This time it gets even better.  Kind of like the fish that got way.

As he was coming up the stairs, he was telling us that the Falcons visit him on his balcony all the time.  Kathy O made the mistake of asking him where he saw them.  He told us that the falcons we were watching were young ones and that the original falcons from the Kodak Tower were massive.  They stood about 3 feet tall and had a HUGE wing span and their heads went back and forth like a cobra.

I guess Mariah and Kaver have now hit legendary status.   

That is so heartbreaking.   

I was there that day!  Lou definitely got some great pics.  Zephyr was having a grand old time buzzing the gulls while carrying his prize around the gorge.   

Yes, it's the Philippone building. Nice people, the Philippones.

Yes, they are very nice and they love the Falcons.
