Looks just like the old box, just brand new!! :) No sense changing something that has been very successful for the peregrines! ;D

As Dennis said we left about 0700, had everything up to the roof just before 1000h and didn't leave until after 1600h. And the box was pre-made so that there were only three pieces to assemble in place! The tower site box went up up much quicker - less than an hour start to finish. Sure is easier (and faster) when working from a ladder isn't involved!!

Seasons change and the birds leave for the winter only to return again in the spring...wonder if the Brandon birds will notice that they have had some Fall Renos done ??
The nest box was full of many,many,many bird body parts and my 1st. thought was to bag and sell on eBay !
Yes Rose, you are correct the birds have a new nest box and it's missing the perch...when we left at 7:00 am it was still dark and Dennis missed putting the top rails and perch into the truck :-[
They will be added in the spring when we visit again.
One thing that we did notice was the number of Pigeons flying safely around downtown Brandon...enjoy it for now !
Rose:
I see a bright New Wooden ??? ??? has been miraculously added to the East side of the Mckenzie Building sometime in the last few days but where's the Perch bar? TPC and Dan, guess you've beat the snow. This morning a thousand Pigeons are gathered all around waiting to try it out. :)
