Went down on Sunday, 3/28/10.  Stayed for a very short time at Water St and in JC.  Absolutely no outside action.  Water St has 4 eggs, JC had 2 as of Sat.  Maybe #3 came out of the pipe?

Stopped at Riverside Church on my way back up and got to see both.  I didn't go in and ask how many eggs they have.

I love the saga of the Rochester peregrines!!  It is way past time for some falcon chicks.

I started watching the scrapes very early this year.  

Jersey:  My young Jersey City friend couldn't stay away and has seen Mom and Dad copulating and flying about.  The JC web cam is online, but moisture or something has made one camera foggy and the other cam got moved.  I don't think they can fix anything until the birds have settled in.  Window washers were on the east side of the building and that doesn't seem to be helping.

Water St:  Saw Rocky coming and going from the scrape.  Building crew reports three eggs.  Cam is not yet online.  They are working on it.  Should be soon.

Enjoy the pictures.  First two are JC, Mom then Dad.  #s 3, 4 are Water St, Rocky (I think)

The Village of Croton and Teatown Lake Reservation have installed a web cam at the boat ramp where I regularly watch the eagles.  Here is the link:

I am so excited about this.  I have no clue (well, almost) about where they put it.  I can't see it from where I watch.  Dedication is Sat, 2/6.

They are back.  Enjoy!!

And I'm sure your friend goes to BlackWater NWR to see the eagles.

Pictures are attached.  They are close and gorgeous.

I usually don't post too much under this topic, but I had to share my latest addition to the flock:

He is gifted.  And even more round eyed than CookieCat.  )

I don't think they remove the bands.  There is too much risk of injury to the leg.  At least that is the philosophy in the parrot world.  Unless the band slips off, it stays.

Wonderful pictures!  One of her landing looks like my signature drawing.  No, I didn't draw it.  The picture is a free download.

 

Carol, it looks like she recognized all of you.  I guess in the off season she likes shopping at the mall.

 

And I have a huge smile on my face.  You go, guys!  (Aren't scopes wonderful?)

 

What happened to Great Horned Owl statues?

 

I'm ordering one right away.  The check is in the mail.
