I don't know how to do the Twitter thing re ID'ing the Watchers, and would love to know who's who. So... IF someone ever finds the time - maybe you could tag a few pix for those like me who cannot be part of the fun! Ta!

 

Wonder what the odds were...

There's no one on the Falcon Cams!
Have they all gone?

Completely fascinated that Beauty keeps tabs on Nor'E after his "incident". How in the world do they know! Amazing.

Happy Independence Day, Everyone!!!

Hi Bobbie.  Nor'E crashed into the wall above the nestbox while attempting to land on Tuesday.  He fell into the well below, took a few minutes to collect himself and then climbed up the ladder to the nestbox.  His left wing is injured.  He spent all of yesterday at the nestbox and, so far, today as well.  He is stretching his whole body and that wing as far as it will go.  Right now he is safe and being fed, and the situation is being monitored by the Genesee Valley Audubon Society and by the DEC. 

Oh dear! Poor wee lad! Thanks, Patsy. I will watch more closely...

Pictures are few and far between now, but the twitter reports make me feel like I am listening to one of the World Cup matches.  Fun times this year.  Get well wishes for Nor'e

I missed what happened to Nor'e! Can someone fill me in?? Ta!

To all our Canadian Friends and Falcons!

Slainte!

 

Not sure whether you have Rooks Stateside... In ROC, I think we only have the Carrion Crow, tho I would stand corrected. We have a number of corvids here, and ones called Hooded Crows do exactly what you see in the short film clip... they can't get at the suet in the hanging feeder - so they take the feeder! Bird brains indeed.
