Thanks so much everyone for the warm welcome! And that video by MAK is wonderful!

Just so nobody freaks like I did when I turned the cam on this a.m., Harlequin is still there! I worried all the way in to work, but am happy to say she's flattened out like a pancake, snoozing, just outside the frame on the right! Hopefully someone adjusts the camera soon. I don't see Quest or Kendal yet this a.m., but they're likely off grabbing some snacks for Harlequin (whom I've affectionately been calling "Chubbalub"). Smiley

 hello Kat and welcome to the forum! I love the nickname "Chubbalub"!

Wow! Couldn't tell if it was Quest or Kendal (I think Quest, though), but I just witnessed a fantastic aerial battle between falcon and seagull. The seagull persisted for quite some time and there were many loops and dives: acrobatics galore! Like watching a scene from Top Gun (well...sort of!). Finally they flew off in opposite directions, but I thought that seagull was going to wind up on the ground. Amazing.

Could it be that Harlequin is demanding "bigger dinner"? Wink

That's funny, ei!   Great movie.  Loved Patrick Swayze in that and in Ghost!  
Great caption for that pic, and all of the pics of Harlie sitting in the corner to feel safe.

Quest and Kendal don't bother anyone walking up the sidewalk? Surprising with the nest so low. Watching her on cam the day of banding, (with so many people walking by), she didn't seem to care. Then again, she was to busy looking up all day.

The banding went very smoothly. Quest wasn't all that aggressive.  Kendal was absent until the very end. I'll let others post the details.

Here is a Toronto CityNews video of the event: http://www.citytv.com/toronto/citynews/videos/138388

Hey cool, there's Joyce in the video, can't miss her long lens!! Tim, Lynda's husband in there also. I watched it a few times as I always miss something and yup, I sure did.  clap I should have noticed that long lens!!  Embarrassed

Has anyone been watching the cam this morning? Harlequin is missing! Quest and Kendal are perched at opposite ends of our building (across from the scrape ledge) and are making lots of noise. I went out and walked all around. Couldn't see anything from the ground. VERY UPSET.

OMG, I saw Quest feed her then she followed Quest to the edge and then she disappeared. I thought she walked to the other end of the ledge!!! She has to be there somewhere. Look in the bushes below or trees. I just said to MAK, I hope she didn't fall off. Oh please, find her.

Okay...after doing two walkabouts, looking out through the telescope on the top floor, and calling and e-mailing the CPF (they're not in the office yet), we heard from a guy in our building, who has a view from the far end, high up, that Harlequin is squished in behind the nest tray. I'm hoping this is true and am hoping to confirm this!!

Good to know you saw her this morning, Donna! I would imagine if she'd fallen off the ledge, we'd have seen her on the ground. This helps me to believe that she is, indeed, hiding behind the tray. Ugh.

Oh wow, that's exactly what MAK said on the phone. I can't see it on cam and she's not moving if she's there. YIKES! Is there room BEHIND the tray? Maybe she's stuck! Plus, Quest would have been there looking. Oh boy!

Kat, I posted pics from this am, if you scroll down, you will see them.
