Battle for the Territory at William Osler
- All Reports
Tracy Simpson Reports:
This past weekend I was out at the William Osler nest site to check in on Chessie and see who the resident male is at this time. Last year Hurricane went on vacation for the winter and in his stead, Casper from the Viscount Road territory spent the winter with Chessie as his mate Claire had also left. This past winter was a repeat of the previous season with Hurricane gone at William Osler, Claire gone at Viscount Road and the remaining adults, Casper and Chessie, keeping company.
When I arrived I didn’t have a bird in sight and then bombing in from the southeast came a male and female. The two went directly to the nest ledge and tray and were vocalizing wildly! A minute or two later, the male came whipping out of the tray and was off to the east in pursuit of something. Off in the distance he met his quarry and it was in fact another male peregrine. I could see that they were locked in battle over the residential neighborhood, grabbing each other and tumbling in the air. They disappeared below the horizon and a minute later, a bird came flying back to the site and the ledge. It took me about 20 minutes to get a look at the band and it was indeed Casper.
Who was this challenger? Is Hurricane back and looking to re-claim his site? I will be out there this weekend to check on just who is who and whether eggs have arrived yet.
Peregrine Fly Through at the CPF Raptor Centre
March 28, 2014 - International, National and Local News
Tracy Simpson Reports:
Had a surprise visitor at the CPF Raptor Centre last night. As I sat in my car watching the snow, above the treetops bombed in a hunting peregrine! Only one bird in the 14 years I’ve been at the barn caring for these birds has done this... …Hurricane. I am now desperately wanting to get down to the William Osler nest site and see if he is in fact home. The picture is not good as I was caught completely by surprise and it was taken during the snow falling (hence the white dots on the bird).

And if I understand correctly, it is only because a Watcher knew this PEFA's behaviour so well that Hurricane was ID'd after all these years. Amazing.

Tracy has known Hurricane since he was hatched and watched over him since he started nesting so it's safe to say that no one knows him better than she does.
Not to mention that Tracy is awesome in general, she has raised falcons, mothered them, healed them and I think knows their behaviour better than anyone I know.

Tracy knows more about Peregrines than anyone I know as well! Matter of fact, I bet she was a falcon in a past life! lol She's the bomb!!!!

Egg #2 confirmed just now for Jack and O'Connor! Pretty sure she laid it yesterday between 4-5 pm but it was up by the lip of the ledge and hard to see!
