From Rochester-Falcon Watcher Carol P.
I spent a few hours watching Archer and Beauty on Sunday.- It was a beautiful, sunny day and they were quite active.- Twice on Sunday, Archer hunted successfully and brought in food for Beauty while she remained at the nestbox guarding the eggs.-

That was great, thanks for posting. You can really see the size difference!

Us (we?) occupants of the Times Square Building are finding more bird parts in the parking lot and in front of the building. I was speaking to the building owner as we watched a couple pair of mourning doves build nests in the letters on the front of the building, and he was laughing about finding bird guts outside! It's great he's so supportive.

I suppose it won't be so funny when I find dried bird parts stuck to the windshield of my car . . .

Nice video Carol..I love the sounds they make when food is delivered and how grabby they get.  Thanks.

Mark - Unless your car is parked next to the building below where they're eating, that shouldn't be a problem.  Maybe a feather or two blown by the wind.

I took a lesson from Paul Hamilton and pointed out to my guys what to look for when the PeFas are migrating through.  Being guys, every dead critter is reported to me and shared with me and all know to go into red alert when they see a carcess missing a head.  They even bring me down to look at the carnage!  All kidding aside, spreading the word that these are meat eaters and educating people before the guts go flying is always a good thing.  And don't park near the building for the next few months    Oh, the squeemish gals, stay away from me and my descriptions.

Yes, I park in the lot right next to the building, so bird guts. The parking lot guys were commenting on the "pigeon parts" that they find all over the parking lot. So far my car's been spared . . .
