Manitoba Peregrines > McKenzie Seeds Peregrines
McKenzie Seeds - 2010 / Brooklyn & Hurricane
RCF:
Left early this morning so I could stop at the parcade for a few minutes before work. Falcon was perched on west light of clock tower, just hanging out. Some lady came over to ask me if I was watching the falcons. I missed the falcon flying off the light, but then I saw scattering pigeons just north of McKenzie Building and behind them came the falcon with breakfast in his/her talons. He/she perched on southwest corner of roof to have breakfast. Still only saw one falcon today, maybe tommorrow. :)
RCF:
At 5pm today I was up on the parkade checking out the falcon, was perched on the east light facing north. I was only there five minutes and she flew off towards the north east. I was looking around the sky staight up with binos and saw four raptors, one was a peregrine and one an eagle but I couldn't tell what the other two were, too far away. Maybe, hopefully there was a second peregrine. :)
Kinderchick:
Okay, Rose and RCF, keep an eye on the peregrine out there for us. I know that you'll probably have him/her identified before too long. And if it happens to be Trey, tell him to get back to his "Princess", who is waiting on her throne in Winnipeg! ;)
Rose:
birdie was sitting in nest box just watching the world go by,got a good look at her front,well barred and fairly high up, his/ her breast is a muted white not brilliant like Zeus and Treys and the mallar patches seem well defined and very black. after a little while (time rushes by when you are having fun) he /she started to be very vocal and moved to the perch bar,flew to the south east and disappeared, couldn't see because of looking into the sun. When I finally located he/she I noticed 3 raptors very high couldn't really tell what they were, then I lost them all because of the sun. RCF will likely check at noon
Rose:
Good advice tpc but first a few conditions have to be met. 1. very little wind 2. steady arm 3.birdie must come down a little from her high perch(mts mast would be good).As to the high perch my daughter(rcf) phoned to tell me our falcon has now moved to the roof of the Mckenzie building just below the clock tower another favorite spot of Hurricane's.So I'm off in a little while to check it out. ;D
