2011 Pictures from the Rfalconcam cameras

[Dumpsterkitty]

I'm not making any predictions.  We're all still learning from what we're watching, which is the whole point of the cameras & watchers in the first place. 

Conventional wisdom says peregrines mate for life.  Mariah hung out with Whiney Tiny Guy & Tybropa Cree in a similar fashion to this while she was waiting for Kaver.  It wasn't until Archer showed up in late March that she tried mating.

Archer will be back if he is able.  We'll just have to wait until then to see how this plays out.

MAK'S pic of Mr T on the plank in between the NE and SE wings of the TS building. Just above the nest box, which is what Beauty was looking at this am.

Donna don't bother looking for a white feather that boy hasn't got any jewelry

[Joyce]

If Archer appears at the nest box and you don't see a white feather or his bling, the difference in his cap (malar stripe & auricular patch) from Mr. T's is very obvious. 

I have to say that Mr. T is one HANDSOME falcon!  His white chest stands out even at a distance (as we can see in MAK's photos).

Lots of e-chupping

Just a few minutes ago, I heard a crash at nest. Something was there, maybe in the well. Sounded like fighting. Not sure what it was but could not see on cam. Sounds like pigeon being attacked. May have been in the well but it was LOUD!! Then a few minutes later B and T showed up.

At some point, could you scan the well area....This is where I think the noise was coming from...can't be sure but it definitely in the cam area. After I heard the first crash, it was crazy after.

Ok, so I'm not sure what happened at the nest earlier but let me tell you, it didn't sound pretty. I sure wish I could see on the cams where it came from. It sounded right there. I'll never forget it and I'm still shaking.

What a morning you have had, Donna-Girl! You poor thing! Will we ever discover what you heard?

Probably not and I was the only one on Live stream. K, I'm crazy!

There's an old carcass in the well. No signs of a recent fight.

Thanks for checking, it was definitely a fight of some sort!

Can Shaky go back and get Archive sound?
