Beauty "Fly off so I can chase you" Little birdie takes off looking for safe zone, Beauty in tow. Beauty misses, little birdie give her the raspberries and leaves. Beauty, "I'll get you next time my pretty!" (KaK-l-ing)

wnyfalconfan (Joyce): MAK reports that the falcon had prey and feathers were flying! Then it took off and headed west. Absolutely in awe of these peregrines.

I talked to MAK and I've never heard anyone so excited to see a stoop like that.  I saw one a couple years back in Buffalo do a straight down stoop off a building and then pull up at the end.  It is such a thrill...your heart thumps and you hold your breath. Congratulations on an exciting watch!

I can just picture it!  Must have been so exciting!

You guys are killin' me! What wonderful experiences our Watchers are having... for all of us!

Archer stooped off the 2nd Ibeam, missed and went to 4th Ibeam where he stooped again and missed. He then went to the 3rd Ibeam. When the live band started on Main St. for the Taste of Rochester event both Archer and Beauty took off before the first song played through. They headed SW perhaps to the nestbox or the jail tower. At that point I came home for a bite to eat. Will be back out soon.
