Canada Falcons: All but those hatched in Rochester

[Dumpsterkitty]

Wow.

Bittersweet is right! As much as I hate thinking Windwhistler may have been displaced I'm also thrilled that Stormin' is OK.

[Kris G.]

Is Erin his grandmother?

Yes she is Tiago's mom.

I'm so glad to hear that Stormin is OK but sorry about Windwhistler..hope he's not hurt or worse.  I know they don't know but hate when kids hook up with Grandma.   

[Carol P.]

We had Archer and Mariah together for awhile.  Grandma and grandson.  It happens.  I do hope that Windwhistler is ok.  Happy to know that Stormin survived his nest site take over.  It is a very small falcon world out there.

I'd say 17 is a fine long life for these falcons. Peregrine's never cease to amaze me. Thanks Tracy, Bruce and Linda!   

[PatriciaRose]

Wow, amazing turn of events!

I know and Beauty's mom, Dorothy, and her grandson, E2, are mates.

Oh my goodness! There is no hope of me ever getting these family trees straight! Yay to those who can!

[Donna]

Well you also have Polly and Algo, bro N sis, Kathy Q and her son Sesenta, (that's only allowed in NJ), BTW! I guess they can't tell who is family. Creepy to us but just another mate to them! I also hope that Windwhistler is OK.

I know!  It's like a big Peregrine Peyton Place out there!

I was going to say Peregrine Porn, but I don't think I will.

Spirit, in Montreal, is with her son, Eole, now since Roger disappeared several months ago.

 King Street Update. Third Bird In the Area
January 19, 2015 - Toronto - King Street
Tracy Simpson Reports:

This morning shortly after 10am Linda Woods was looking at the King Street East nest site area and had activity in the air.  A third bird entered the territory from the southeast and engaged one of the adults.  She believes that the two interacting were both males and that the female remained out of the fray on the south side of the Dynamic building.  The interaction continued for almost 45 minutes and included chases and vocalizing but no talon to talon contact.  Who this third bird is is unclear at this time but the flight pattern of the second male was distinctly that of Windwhistler and Erin was not reacting to this bird at all.  Could it be that Windwhistler is still around?  Further observation will be following this week.

With Sheraton being so close to King St, I was very happy to see two birds on the nest ledge yesterday and bowing to each other.  I am sure they are aware of what is going on at King St.  I just hope that however this all turns out, all the falcons involved stay safe.
