  UT? Don't quite see a band.

Yes this looks like UT. He has a small part white part of his auricular patch that is vertical. I try to visualize it as thumbs up. His malar strip is wide as in the pics.

Bobbie - Wish I was an expert, but all I do is study and compare. Trying to learn as much as I can, but it is still hard to say who's who at this time of year, especially in person.

Possible scenario right now - Intruder may not be DC because he is not appearing at BS that we know of. I believe this aggressive behavior is another male chasing resident male from the territory because it is the best Rochester nest site.

Beauty is not fickle when she bonds with a mate, plus she has copulated with UT and her number one priority is her scrape for laying eggs. Until she feels UT will not return, I doubt she will consider bonding with this new male.

If it is DC, she will likely join with him based on her instinct to reproduce, but she won't give up her nestbox.

Do you mean another male chasing resident female or male chasing UT out?

Right now I consider UT the resident male since B has bonded & copulated with him.

Ahh, OK-I was confused!  Looks like the resident male has been chased out or worse since no signs of him since yesterday.  Poor Beauty has never had an easy time since she landed in Rochester-good thing she's so strong and committed!

Beauty has certainly earned my respect in these changing times for Peregrines.

This reminds me so much of DC when he arrived! The swooping! OMG, poor Beauty. She's holding her own. So sad to watch though. Thanks Kris.
