2011 Pictures from the Rfalconcam cameras

Beauty, busy in the nest box.

(movie) She was chewing the wood too! What's she up to?

Not much further to China!

Can't Beauty just keep him at Times Square?  Or Unity just keep him at Kodak Park?  Like one of them just please reign him in!  There must be other tiercels willing to assume paternal duties.

Having  just looked on at  this clip, I feel bad for our Beauty.  Watching, her, and after having watched  her in happier days, she seems disturbed? It's almost like she doesn't know what to do with herself.  Where are my eggs?  My Hatchlings?  My Archer?   I know...maybe  I am anthromo....whatever....but it is not the Beauty we have watched.  I KNOW  it's only her instinct and hormones, but it is hard for we HUMANS  to watch.  We are seeing things we haven't seen before.

We are not scientists...at least, I'm not!   But you have to feel for Beauty.  We know that it's her instincts and her hormones that are kicking in, and in over drive right about now, but to be able to see these pictures of her up close is tough.  We've all watched these birds long enough to know that she is having a tough time right now. I long for the pictures of a placid mom sitting on her eggs, or mantling her babies, or feeding her new hatches.    The good news is that Beauty is still here, and that Archer is still visiting her and even bringing prey!    I'm not giving up.

I heard little birds at the nest, suddenly their peeps went into panic mode and sure enough, Beauty was on their tails. Saw it all on Live stream.

This was recorded. I'll look for it this afternoon.

Cool, you can see Beauty swoop down and chase them.
