A Wonderful Sunday Falcon Watch - 2/26/12

[Yarak]

By Rochester Falcon Watcher Carol P.
In my book, there is no better way to spend a few hours on a Sunday, with good friends and watching beautiful birds.- 
Watchers included: Dana, Joyce, MAK, Dan S and Carol P.
It was a very cold day, but when the Sun came out, boy did it feel good!

The things you miss on cam!

Thanks everyone. Sadly, none of my pictures showed the mystery tiercel's legs, so I have no idea if he is banded or not.  Maybe one of my long-lens friends can answer that question after looking at their pictures.

if its Mr W than he is not banded. or do you think A has come home?

I definitely do not think it was Archer.

[Kris G.]

No bands.

[Donna]

No bands.

Where are these no banders coming from??

Could be anywhere, so many falcons out there now...could be an offspring of Mariah or one of her descendants.  They nest where they can I"m sure!  We didn't know about the Y&E nest until one of the kids got trapped on a balcony and someone called CPF!

Seems to be a lot more than we know out there! Would be great if Mariah had babies last year or the year before. Ya never know.
