McKenzie Seeds - 2010 / Brooklyn & Hurricane
RCF:
I saw two peregrines today, one this morning around 11am. 8) :) It was flying quite low heading south over the parking lot where I work towards the McK building......only three blocks away. The other one was perched on the Scotia bank bldg around 3:30 this afternoon. I am not really sure if I was seeing one or two different falcons. :-\

I have only been seeing one falcon for the past week, I suspect Brooklyn may have gone south. :-\

Or gone west or north or south to wetlands for a pre-migratory feast. Not much movement of peregrines at the migration sites, so probably not left yet, ours tend not to leave particularly early ... with the chicks "gone", the adults don't necessarily hang out at the nestsite, Brandon does leave earlier than the Radisson most years, but not usually quite this early ...
sami:
Isn't it a bit early for one to leave? Of course, maybe the chill in the air had something to do with it. I just worry about the oil spill, sounds like it's worse than first indicated. If only there were some way to tell our birds to avoid that area.

Smart girl - traveling early to get first pick of the prime spots and avoiding the rush.

So glad to hear that you are at least still seeing one of the birds around, BirdLover and Rcf! :D
