I'm only seeing 3, did Marlee go again!

I'm only seeing one!

Stay safe babies!

I see 2 but 1 was up by the nest earlier. Hard to keep track already!    Please be safe little ones.

I see 3 right now.  So many to watch in  Toronto!

3 could only mean that Marlee took flight again or it was another. Oh boy or oh girl!!

Or you think you're seeing only one and then do a double take as you're saving it...



Dem boids can be sneaky!

At least one fledge, possibly two
June 11, 2012 - Toronto - Sheraton Centre
Harry Crawford Reports:

Morning Shift:  Around 5am from home, all four chicks were seen
on the webcam.  By 6:30am, only two were visible.  At 7am, when
I reached the Sheraton, no chicks were visible on the nest ledge.
I then did a fairly extensive ground search and checked ledges
on low buildings - nothing.  Finally, I started to look for the
adults which required going up to the 43rd floor of the Sheraton.
Again, nothing seen.  Around 9am two chicks appeared on the nest
ledge and both adults hung around the north side of 120 and 130
Adelaide W.

After returning from another trip to 43, I ran into Rosalind who
had joined the watch again.  When we moved to the front of 120
Adelaide she spotted a chick on the roof area of 111 Richmond W.
We later found out that the chick was on the roof of 120 Adelaide
before flying down to 111 Richmond - well done.  Mark dropped by
and gave Rosalind a radio and instructions on how to operate it.
From home at 3:20pm, one chick was on the box camera and one on
the nest ledge - the third one not in view - possible fledge.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I think I agree with Harry-looks like only 2 on the ledge right now...and one adult.

Looks like yellow tape on the one on the edge-so Marlee might not have left again. In other pics the other one looks to be blue tape-FEF.

Eyes were deceiving me...

Marlee found again. Second fledge found

Linda Woods Reports:

Bruce arrived on site and found today’s fledgling on 111 Richmond St ( building under renovation, across the Street from the Sheraton ) on top of the Hvac unit on the roof.  When I arrived I took over watching this bird and Bruce went to find the other.  It didn’t take him very long to find Marlee on the “Krensaâ€� building at University and Adelaide. He was sitting on the black metel struts on top of the building.  Not much activity from any of the juvies. Two remain on the ledge. Adults flying the area. At one time Tiago took up position on the north east corner of the Hilton, without reaction from Richmond Street fledgling.  It started to light rain into heavier rain and the birds settled down.  Forcast to continue to rain for the next  little while.  Bruce decided that the rain will hold the birds down for the night.

Good morning babies!

Harry Crawford Reports:

Morning Shift:  I found Marlee on the building at University and
Adelaide around 7:30am.  He had worked his way around to the
south-west corner.  I was able to see him from King and Simcoe.
He went around the building at least twice this morning, flapping
his wings and hopping around.  At one point I could see him when
I was in front of 120 Adelaide.

Yesterday’s fledge is still on 111 Richmond but is moving around
the roof area quite a bit.  When I left, he was on the north
green railing.  Mom made a food drop around 9am - seen from 43 on
one of several trips up there.  The two remaining chicks on the
ledge were rarely seen from the street this morning.  When I got
home, they were both standing on the box camera.  When I just
checked [1:55pm] one was on the box camera and the other in the
nest box.

 "I haz food and you don't!"

" Yeah so, I haz to leave soon, and youz will be here all alone!"

"Hey, I was doing good mom, why you take that from me?"

[Dumpsterkitty]

So, what do you think, Journey? Time to try these wings?

Don't know, FEF...still looks pretty scary to me!

Harry Crawford Reports:
Morning Shift:  I spent the better part of the morning looking
for the missing chicks.  I wasn’t able to find them or even the
adults.  The chicks on the ledge were not visible until around
10am.  My travels took me as far as Metro Hall - all the way to
City Hall.  Two trips to 43 didn’t find anything.  On my second
trip there around 10am I did see an adult heading towards Metro
Hall.

At ground level both chicks were now on the ledge - running and
flapping.  They spent about 15 minutes doing this and then the
parents came by.  The male stayed on the hotel logo and mother
made about 10 passes of the nest ledge in a counter-clockwise
manner.  These chicks are ready to go.  By about 10:30 the chicks
settled down and the parents disappeared.  At one time in the
courtyard, I could hear chicks calling but it could have been
from the nest ledge.

I have faith they are fine & just not where Harry can see them.  There are also new buildings around that probably complicate matters. Having just been to that neighborhood over the weekend I can understand not finding them.  Remember Callidora being "lost" in plain sight on the jail?
