bccs:
Air quality check, birdies have flown the coop, no sign of them. They've been hanging around the west side a lot more, so I'll try and get out to the street once a day.
Stinkin hot and humid out there guys. :P
moka:
Honestly, what would we do without you bccs? Your ongoing comments and air checks are so helpful.
Thank you to all who contribute. :-*
BirdLover:
That is so cool! Glad you all got to see them last night. My golden girl here is Brandon is the same way. You can hear her over everything when she is "singing".
Have a terrific day everyone!!!!

Thursday air quality check. Just finished raining, it's dark out there, so we'll likely get more. No falcons this am, but yesterday, as Allikat and I were walking to Tavern United, we saw four of them. All three kids and Trey. They put on a wonderful flying show, swooping, playing tag, catching thermals and of course, yelling from our girl. Now this was at 5:00 pm, lots and lots of traffic around and we could hear her over all that noise. Gives you all an idea of how loud her "singing" is. ;D

...actually, i was taking my jog in elmsood cemetary about 1 1/2 weeks ago, and there were some sort of raptors in the trees in one area, all making quite a fuss; I didn't think I'd ever be able to i.d. them, but now i think they were coopers, thanks to your photos, and also by the site www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Coopers_Hawk/id where you can also play some of their calls...it was amazing how quiet all the other birds in the cemetary were, including the resident crows, who are usually very noisy - they were all staying put in a completely different corner of the grounds, not making a peep...
