McKenzie Seeds - 2009 / Zeus & Hurricane
BirdLover:
No TPC, those kids are laying low. We have been trying to talk them into showing their puffaloons but they ain't cooperating. Will keep trying tho.
She seems to be the biggest and you have to see the colour of her in the sun. She really does glow gold!
bccs:
You're having a great time guys and that's a huge part of it.
Way to go, and keep watching the birdies. ;D

At least he didn't toot the horn or we might have gone into orbit!!! Just after that we were dive bombed by Zeus so you see there's never a dull moment when you're out watching the Birdies, especially if they Peregrin Falcon Fledglings.

Hee Hee, I totally forgot about that. :-[ He was very nice about it. Just smiled and nodded. HE DID SNEAK UP ON ME!! It was too windy to hear a vehicle that was sneakin' up on me!!! That's why the kids were hunkered down ;D
Rose:
Had another good day tripping around the buildings near Mckenzie building and environs,saw headless birds half eaten,we'll have to get those kids a fridge and keep the place clean or the powers that be will be charging it on their taxes. Saw all four chicks and both parents so as per the other posts we're all happy maybe even greatly elated.Bird lover didn't tell you we were holding up traffic coming into parking lot behind Mckenzies. we were strolling down the middle of the lane when BL gives a little yelp,a hop, skip and a jump and gets over to the edge of the road and the man in a white car drives slowly by with a big grin on his face, I guess he knew what we were doing.

You call me and I'll walk you through it Rose!
--- Quote from: BirdLover on July 22, 2009, 21:31 --- My worry is that one of them will do something silly when no one is watching and we won't be able to get there in time :-\

They are tough little birds, if something happens they will be waiting for rescue from someone, don't worry. If something fatal does happen, chances are it wouldn't matter if you were there, when that happens they really are pretty much beyond help from anyone. It sometimes makes you feel bad to put them through the stress of human contact (capture, vet exam, treatment, confinement, etc).
--- Quote from: BirdLover on July 23, 2009, 16:29 --- Just came from the downtown. Spent three hours there just watching. My golden girl is so beautiful. She is on the Scotia Bank building which is higher than the nest box!!! Our boy was hanging out at the base of the tower on the McKenzie Seeds building and Rose and I could only see one other on the building to the north of the McKenzie Seeds building. Zeus was hanging out with my golden girl on the SB building. No Hurricane to be seen at all today.

Can you see the band number on your "golden girl"? I'd like to be able to record the information ...
--- Quote from: BirdLover on July 23, 2009, 16:29 --- Not much movement by any other than Zeus and he was hunting, brought his meal back to the building and when he was done,there were leftovers, HE STASHED THEM ON A LEDGE!!! I didn't know that Peregrine's stashed their leftovers. I have learned something new today.

Its called cacheing, and all birds do it, some more than others, some less.
