Tower Nest - 2011 / Zeus & Alice
RCF:
Alice is still here, she was laying down on the lower catwalk halfway up the tower when I first saw her and then she sat up. It was very gusty here this afternoon and she would be out of the wind in that spot. I was on the southeast side of the tower and because she was much lower on the tower I could see her much better. :)
The Peregrine Chick:
I suspect that Zeus & Alice and Brooklyn & Hurricane will all leave about the same time - that way they prevent each other from "visiting" each others' nestsites ...

I used to be able to get closer to the other side but since the flooding this spring the road has been blocked to get to that area. :( On the bright side, I did see both Zeus and Alice this afternoon.

With luck next year there will be no (or less) flooding for access!! I suspect that lighting (morning vs afternoon light) could be a big deal at this site because of the distance ... but I'm sure you will soon figure out the best spots and times :)
Kinderchick:
So great to hear that you spotted both Zeus & Alice, rcf! 8)
