I envy you both! It's harder in downtown Wpg, when you don't have a window seat OR co-workers who get it (remember after Black Friday, those who thought we were nuts for sobbing at our desks?).
I am SO glad you have free access! :)

Once you know where to look...they are easy to spot. Well of course if they are around ::)

Don't worry...I decided to pull into a parking lot to watch all of this unfold :P

This comes under the heading of - just when you are not looking for them - I saw Ivy this afternoon. I was out shopping and saw a very familiar looking building (thanks Dennis) with what looked like a stuffed animal on a balcony rail midway up. I had my binoculars in my backpack and whoa, there was the little rockstar himself looking every bit as handsome as his dad. He was probably either having a midafternoon siesta or else watching for a pigeon to come by. There is a plentiful supply in the neighbourhood. I didn't hang around even though I was in a public parking lot, because it seemed a little like invasion of privacy, for the people there I mean. It is different for the Project people to be documenting them. I am sure that Ivy and Jules don't care, afterall they were doing the wild thing in one of the most public locations in the city. :D
Great name by the way Tracy. And yes, I had the wrong set of buildings the other week although they fit the criteria, plus falcons had visited in the past and a falcon did fly by when I was in the vicinity. C'est la vie. :D

So glad to hear that, allikat!
