!!! The new male “Mac†is caught on camera feeding his adopted chicks! May 28, 2016 - Toronto - Don Mills Marion Nash Reports: Saturday May 28th - 2016 Marta took a snapshot today of the new male Mac as he’s been nick-named, feeding the chicks and you can see the entire family in this shot! This is what we have been waiting for! It appears that Mac, the new resident male at the Duncan Mill nest site has finally stepped up and is now feeding his adopted hatchlings, (as we know, Mac replaced the resident adult male Sky sometime after the eggs hatched), and although Mac has been providing food to Quest all along,, - remembering that he is still very much in courting mode,, this is the first evidence of him actually feeding the chicks. It does appear that Mac is under a very watchful eye of Quest as seen in the photo, with Quest standing just beside of the event obviously ready to jump in should things not go right. It will be interesting to see if Mac will carry on with the fatherly duties, as it is the male that does most of the flight and hunting training with the fledglings! Stay tuned………. http://www.peregrine-foundation.ca/w/wp-content/plugins/post-gallery/thirdparty/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?src=http://www.peregrine-foundation.ca/w/wp-content/plugins/post-gallery/uploads/2016/05/1464452714_Mac.jpg&w=1024&h=1024&zc=0 The pic!!

Happy to hear that Quest's new mate Mac is taking on taking care of the young ones. Hope Skye is ok.

It would seem that our Quest is irresistible to all males. At least Kendal is alive and well. Hopefully the same is true for Skye!

!!! Not long now! June 01, 2016 - Toronto - Don MillsMarion Nash Reports: June 1st 2016 They still have white fluffy legs and a lot of down but they’re flapping up a storm and running about. Not long now  It was lovely to see the photo on the CPF site showing Mac feeding a chick. I have still yet to see it whenever I’m watching! Need to have that web cam on all the time now! Yesterday he flew in with food, and Quest turned her back on him and totally shut him out. He stayed off to the side, and eventually crept over with the food. She took it, half heartedly it appeared, and there was a bit of a tug of war (quite comical) between the two. Then she flew off with it, probably to enjoy it herself. He stayed there for a while, doing what he mostly does when I happen to look over with the binocs. Just stare at the “step kidsâ€. Then fly off. Too funny. Sally !!! Date of Fledge Watch - June 6th June 01, 2016 - Toronto - Don MillsMarion Nash Reports: I plan on officially starting the fledge watch on June 6th anyone wanting to volunteer some time please contact me at the office at 416-481-1233 and hour here and there can make a big difference and is very much appreciated!

Lots of flapping and wing workouts June 04, 2016 - Toronto - Don Mills Marion Nash Reports: Kathy, Bob and I spent a few hours on watch today just to check in on the chicks to make sure no one left the ledge earlier than expected and though there was lots of wing flapping they are not quite ready to go but very soon perhaps another couple days. All 4 seen at nest when we left and Quest just left to go hunting. http://www.peregrine-foundation.ca/w/2016/06/sightings/lots-of-flapping-and-wing-workouts-2/ PICS
