Princess looks like the Queen of all she surveys. She owns that ledge. Hope she remembers it is just a stopping off place not a nesting place.

Here's the window-washing scene today- Princess not fazed one little bit.
Too bad Princess can't scare the window washer over to your side of the street, Pam! ;)

Must inform Peregrine Folks on the Forum that "Wowzer" is not always at my side when I'm working...I will normally have "Little Wowzer" or "Want-a-be-Wowzer"...there just isn't room for all to ride-a-long...as I do have to work and must make room for work things  :'( :'( :'(

Lucky girl bccs...keep up the good work with thos Air Quality Checks.

I have a question and hope it is okay to ask here.  Once they decide where they will lay their eggs...how long after will the camera be up and running?

Air Quality Check, and oh what a check it was!

Princess on the ledge ( yes I got some pictures ).
All of a sudden she starts making very loud kissey-churpey noises. Take the camera away from my face and sure enough, here comes Ivy. He flies right over my head and turns east toward the river. Well the tart jumps off the ledge and follows him, I lose them for about a minute and then she's back - no sign of him. She beelines it for the ledge, lands on it, hops in and out of it for a bit and then flies off around the Kensington Blgd.

Wow!!

Ya just never know what those crazy birds are going to do.
May have to have a fund-raising event this year. Swing stages don't come cheap.

Air Quality Check

Princess on the ledge soaking up the sun. A couple of pigeons flew past her and she barely turned her head. Guess she just ate.

Pam just called me, Ivy was on his perch on top of the Kensington Building around 8:30.
He wasn't there when I ws out later and saw Princess.

Hopefully they are considering a change of venue  :-\

For the folks downtown, the Radisson is having its windows cleaned at the moment...

Well, I bet that Pam would appreciate it if the Radisson window washers would swing on over to her building! Am I right, Pam?! ;)
