Whoopie folks ;D The Elk River couple were just back at the nestbox chupping at each other. It was great to catch this. Let's hope they are back here next spring.
A pigeon, a very lucky pigeon, had been picking around in the gravel a little earlier ::)

:) Glad to see Mom sitting at the back of the nestbox out of the sun chirping away. She just called out now and flew off.

It is - every morning it's the first thing I check even before I enter the building I work in. I've become quite attached to them and i miss the kids too but I haven't seen them around for a few weeks so I'm just assuming they're off exploring the world and I hope to hear someday that they have their own little families.
I'm going to watch mom and dad daily this winter and keep a diary because I want to see if they stay all winter - I've seen them in February in the snow and as late as October last year but I"m wondering do they really stick around when it's minus 27? So we'll see...I've heard conflicting stories about them going/staying year round.

Carly, thanks for your response :) I feel a lot better now. It must be wonderful to be able to watch "your" falcons. ;D ;D
