Canada Falcons: All but those hatched in Rochester

He seems to be staying out of it for now Jeanne.  But he's definitely not being hostile to the other female either.    She may be going easy on Aria because she's young and maybe hoping she'll leave on her own.  The fact that she's landing on the rooftop of the nest ledge building and acting so confident tells me she isn't going away.

Oh boy.  Thanks so much for being there.  O'Connor has been displaced before so she may be holding her ground more.  Aria would not be that experienced at this.

Going back out for a quick look, I am so going to lose my job one of these days but I can't just sit here.  Thanks for keeping an eye on the cam for me.

I just hope they will all be safe.  My poor baby.  This is new for her.  I just hope they don't double team her like what happened to Mariah. 

Beauty was double-teamed by Pigott and DC for weeks and they all came out unscathed so hopefully the same scenario here.

The other female is taking runs at Aria when she flies out.  Aria flew to the front ledge and then to one two ledges over and both times the female tried to engage her.  Lucky is helping I think...he diverted the female away from Aria.  I'm going to send a note to my boss...no one else is here and this is starting to escalate.  Going to book the rest of the afternoon off but I'll come in and update when I can.

Boy is it cold outside, my hands are frozen but as you can see Aria is back on ledge..phew!  When I got outside after my last post...no one was in sight which freaked me out.  I waited, waited...Lucie came back so both of us were running up and down the lane way looking for them and suddenly Aria flew in very quietly and landed on the ledge.  Then she started flying around above the nest ledge, very quietly and no urgency to her flight.  Lucky came in from the South and he's now on the Flipp sign above the nest ledge and both are quiet.

I don't know what happened between the time I posted and got downstairs...but I must have missed something.  Could be the other female went to get food and is taking a break ... but so far it's quiet right now. 

Tomorrow morning, I won't be on site - I have to take my mom to an eye specialist aptmt as she's having and issue with the lens they put in her eye when took out the cataract and I was going to work from home but I think I will come into the office now given the situation. 

Lucie and I will stay until it gets dark tonight in case that female comes back.  I will keep you posted.

Thanks again Carly and Lucie!

Carly!!! You’re awesome!!!! Thank you so very much!

I am home now.  Aria is still on the ledge, she is on high alert as you can imagine.  Lucky went to go hunting about 4.30 pm but up until then the two of them didn't move or vocalize at all.

Someone did PM me on Facebook to let me know that someone posted on BCAW and CPF website a photo of Aria with blood on her...so in case you see it please don't be upset, we did not see any blood on Aria whatsoever and we had Lucie's 'big as my thigh zoom' lens so we got a good look at her.  It might have been from a meal, perhaps she tried to eat when we didn't see her those few times and couldn't comfortably due to the presence of the intruder.  She was flying well and no visible injuries.  I did see the other female try to have a go at her that time I posted but no contact was made.  Aria evaded and Lucky was right in there to move her off and take her flying any time she tried.  We did see Aria try to go after her a few times but she was quite hesitant about making contact and spent most of her time on the ledge crying.

I won't lie to you - this other female is big, yes she's larger than Aria and Lucky.  I expect she intimidated Aria quite well.  She was bold and brazen and parked herself on the roof top like she owned the place.

I will do my best to get to the site tomorrow after my mom's appointment as I expect this female will be back.
