Oh, and we're pretty sure that it was Beauty on the Kodak Tower.  I was able to get there with the Falcon Watchers Scope just before she took off and flew towards downtown.  Dana found her on Times Square.

Two Long-lenses are pointed at the Falcon on the apartment building.  Let's hope that they will be able to see if this Falcon has bands or not.

This is about 1/2 way between Kodak Office and Kodak Park.  North of Kodak Office.

Dana reports that the Falcon is still there at 3:05 pm.  She and Joyce are waiting for that take-off shot. 

WanderingFalcon (Carol P.): Falcon Watch 2/6/10 2:15 pm - Dana reports a Peregrine on the Kodak Tower on the arch ledge above where the old nest box used to be.

Be safe everyone!  Sounds like a doozy of a storm coming.  According to our weatherpeople, Rochester will escape this one.  Thank goodness

Let us know how you're doing.

Thanks for the birthday wishes, everyone!!

Happy Birthday Mardean.  Hope you had a nice one.

and congrats on your first (and hopefull not last) post.   

Reminds me of Bart's vet - Doctors and Vets in the country have to know about everything and how to treat it.

My absolutely favorite books were the "All Creatures Great and Small" series by James Herriot.  It was amazing how many different creatures they had to care for. 

Not all Vet clinics will even accept a downed raptor.  Brian and I ran into this when we frantically tried to get help for Mariah.

Then there are the implants

Uh hum!  Jeanne.  We promised to never speak about the implants.   

You are welcome.....but aliens would of been more fun. 

A few years ago Lisa McK and I saw a UFO hovering above the Kodak Tower, while on Watch.  It had just turned dark........................... We don't like to talk about it.   

  I hope Scratch provided the egg for the cake that Craig is baking for you!

Unfortunately Scratch has gone into "henopause" so no eggs from her anymore. She did enjoy the whipped cream frosting and cherry filling Craig made for my Schwartzwalderkirschtorte!

Thanks for all the cards and wishes!
Linda

Happy Birthday Linda! 

You should have let me know that Scratch was egg-less.  I'm sure that Justice could have spared a few. 

Whatever took it was fast!!  ???

Fast?  Ha!  Must have been a Peregrine!   

Can the tape be reviewed to see who took it in between frames? Figures, I was waiting to see Beauty come back for it and she dodged the cams.

I'll check.  I can't believe the camera missed her!  Darn.  Little brat!  

Well, we know this prey has been there at least since Sunday.  We could see it from the ground.  It will be interesting to see if Beauty will retrieve it.  Keep watching!

Has anyone considered that possibility that this is the work of one of Ripley's "Aliens"?

It is a headless pigeon.

This is not good.   

  Looking good, hope it's cured

Is that a "snack" to our right of the main cam?

I'm glad pancam is working.  We could see that prey sitting at the end of the platform from below.

Carol, the album won't let me comment...

Anyway, great pictures as always.  I think it was crow-mobbing-red tail day...saw the same thing coming out of work earlier.  I think Beauty was just playing with the pigeons-her crop looked pretty full!

Thanks for braving the   !

Hmmmm, I wonder if you have to be signed in to leave a comment?  I'm just getting used to Picasa since KGallery has been giving me problems.
