I am sorry I forgot to come over here and post.

If  this is a female , it is a new female. I do not know if many of the Red Deer people know that the resident female died at season end.  When Peter and I drove there last Thursday, we spotted a falcon  on the tower. I have picutres. they look same as one posted here. I talked to a man , who lives right there, and he has been watching for years. He said this was the first back and it was either late last Wed night or Thursday morning. As he checks all the time. He also has a scope. I told him about the female. At that  time there was only one home. He sadi some do not like the falocns s they kill the Jays but I told him the Jays were not main food source and so there would still be lots around. We saw 4 while we were talking.  It is a  beautiful spot for these falcons. He indicated that bird sanctuary was not far away and so they probably go three for a smorgasbord  :)
He and his wife jsut sit with their scope and watch them

We did see a car with someone with a scope. I will come back with my few shots.

Anyhow , I have to go there on Saturday again and i will check it out. there were none home at other site when we were there. Lots of pigeons

RCF:
One falcon at the nest box chupping, you can here one in background calling. The falcon walks to the other side of the box and disappears off cam view.    :)

RCF:
The inside cams are offline, so just the external cam is working.  I have some video of one at the box and thank goodness for sound because you can hear both falcons.  ;D   I will post the video after I convert it.
