What a great bunch of "Falcon Lovers". Thank you all for rescuing little Cinnamon. Bless you all. 

I agree, Donna!  These folks are just wonderful!!!!  There are pictures on Linda's post but I don't know how to post them here

   The Heroes!

  The wayward Cinnamon

   Back home, safe & sound

The picture of Cinnamon reminds of the Jemison's picture in the carrier when she was hurt last year.  Well Cinnamon and Jemison are related are n't they?

Yup, though how to describe the relationship eludes me at the moment...

And, you've probably figured out I'm not one to leave that go...they're cousins...Cinnamon's mother & Jemison's paternal grandfather are siblings...

[Bonnie]

No, I think that is not right.  Rhea Mae is kaver's and Mariah's daughter and jemison is Archer's son or daughter.  Archer is Mariahs grandson but they are not first cousins.  Archer came from offspring of Mariah and Cabot Sirroca, yes?

[Bonnie]

I think about this stuff but I don't really care much. Just wnt the birds to stay safe

You're right, not first cousins, but whatever degree of cousin-ness it is.  Freedom (Archer's father) & Rhea Mae are full siblings, both offspring of M&K.  So, in human terms, Rhea Mae is Archer's aunt...therefore all their offspring are cousins.

And no, it doesn't matter at all...just that margaret commented that they looked alike in their carriers and was checking that they are related...

I knew you would know!   If  you think about all of the  bloodlines crossing borders it is mindboggling. 
The falcons are wonderful for international relations. So are all the watchers crossing into Burlington and Toronto.  And Kat posting on our dual citizenship Harlie/Harley.

When is an eyas not an eyas anymore?  When it sits in the nest until its chest feathers become adult white!  And that's going to happen to Kate and Cinnamon, if they stay up there much longer!!  What a day!  They sat there, looking as if they might go...  They flapped, jumped in and out of the ledge, flapped some more.  And you think my hair was grey before!!  You take your eyes off them and they could be long gone, visiting some lofty building to the east, to the west, to the south!  Yikes!  But the end of the day found them sitting up there still, kakking softly at me, sitting 'way down below, permanent circles around my eyes from my binoculars, butt about to fall off!  Truly, I think they want to stay up there!  And who can blame them -- food delivered to the door, lovely breezes, shelter from the pouring rain!

Sunshine, on the other hand, is amazingly mobile.  I watched in awe as she played tag with her parents, kakking at the top of her lungs the whole way!  She is really a noisy one!  I never have to look hard for her -- she announces her presence loudly and clearly!!  And can she fly!  Her whole family tree would be totally proud of her!  She's fast, fairly accurate, energetic and proud!  I thought she had settled in for the night on the "S" of the Sheraton sign.  But come 8pm, off she goes again, tries for the top of the tall building her dad's sitting on, doesn't quite make it, starts around again and he takes off in a stoop, just misses her, and the chase is on!  Twisting and turning, Sunshine kakking her head off, swooping, reversing in a flash, climbing.  She's just the greatest!!  I just stand there in awe, holding my breath, wondering how all the people walking by cannot see all that's going on in their sky!  Actually a lot of people ask me what I'm looking at -- and when I tell them, they are so interested, quite taken by the whole scene!  If those two sit up there long enough, all the people of Toronto are going to be falcon watchers!  Bonus!!

By the way, I took a series of photos of Cinnamon's rescue...  Linda put some of them in her CPF report.  If anyone wants to see them -- there are 14 -- I'll be happy to send them on...  I don't remember how to post them here...
