Fledge Watch- Jeanne, Monday July 2, 6 A.M.- 8 A.M.
This morning began quite quietly. Last night, a failed food transfer had resulted in a pidgeon on the floor of Jimmy Mac’s (a restaurant behind the smokestacks) fire escape. It had disappeared this morning when I arrived. Juvies, according to Dan S. had been on the stacks and on the Kodak tower when he arrived. During my time with them, they had great periods of flight in the gorge and talon tag along with rest times. They have become awesome fliers. They have practiced swooping on ducks and geese in the gorge.
Paul R was also an official watcher this morning so I will leave the spicy details to him! Let me just tantalize you by saying it was exciting and fun to watch. The juvies like to hang together either all 4, paired or 3 together with one apart from the others.
