They moved closer to each other now.   I'm hoping that's B and DC and not that interloper.

Me too!

Beautiful sunrise on a very cold Rochester morning!

Very white chest. Could this be DC on the south side of OCSR 2nd Ibeam? From 9:53 - 11:31 am.

A little more awake now, this looks like Beauty.. to me at least.

What a wonderful sight!

Ok went to live stream and rewound, she was vocalizing and another falcon was doing fly by's.!    She wasn't upset but rather watching the other falcon .. either it's DC courting her or the new male trying to impress her.  If it was DC I would expect him to join her at the box unless of course he is preoccupied with unbanded male.

Thanks Carly! Just what we were waiting for!

Another view.

If you zoom in on the end of the wall, you can see the tiercel. Too far to see if banded.

Oh I missed that!  I wouldn't expect DC to be that bashful with her.  I wonder if he didn't migrate this year - I remember Lil Dad did that once he got older or something happened to DC.  There have been so many losses this winter due to the cold weather.  Of course I'm getting ahead of myself here but based on past years behavior this is a bit different.

Dana actually spotted the tiercel on the wall. I missed it too.

Good catch Dana.  It's hard to tell if he is banded as you say and he looks much darker than DC - the hood I mean and the white extends further back under it.  That being said, Beauty also looked darker this morning - and I know the lighting this time of year makes it appear that way.
