12/7/23 Falcon Pics and Observations

Pearl Harbor Memorial Day and 1st day of Hannukah.

Woke up to about an inch of snow on the ground and the sound of plows salting the roads. Temps started in the 20sF, now 33F at 9:50 am.

9:20 am - Neander arrived on the Wilder Chimney. At first I didn't think he had food.



At 9:24 am, Neander has either a piece of food, or he very quickly caught small prey. Can't tell without seeing the video. My best guess is he successfully hunted.



At 9:48 am, Nova arrived with much larger prey. A few moments later Neander landed nearby to watch.



At 10:04 am, Neander makes his move and they switch places!



C'mon Nova! Can we please share!





And he's off!

Haiku Time!  The Haiku is a Japanese poetic form that consists of 3 lines, with 5 syllables in the first line, 7 in the second and 5 in the third. It's  been a long time since we had fun with Haikus!

Wilder chimney is
Where you will find our falcons
This time of the year.

Waiting for Winter to end.
To fill the nest box.

Tries to write falcon Haiku.
It is really bad.

I didn't try to write a falcon haiku, I did write a falcon haiku. Although it is self admittedly a very bad falcon haiku.

Watcher Carol P.
Does write a falcon Haiku.
Says it's really bad.
