U of Alberta - 2009 / Damon & Radisson
carly:
Haven't see them at all today, not even in the early morning. I think it was just the egg she was coming back for, she would just gaze at it sadly... I know, I know, she's a bird and probably thinks of it as a failed nest but watching her I got the feeling that she was reluctant to leave it.
I wonder if the falcons will go to the nest at all, or would they be reluctant and not consider it safe with all the confrontations they've had with the ravens TPC? I know I've read they take over abandoned nests of ravens in the wild but the ravens were here already. I'm just surprised they've not even landed there other than the first day Radisson came back before she knew about George and Weezie. Or is that a strategic 'not put myself in a spot where they could attack me' move.

Well......hmm......No news today???.......At this point, maybe no news is good news......Hope this week will bring a new beginning with G&W moving on to a better home and our Peregrines moving into their assigned apartment. 8) - Fingers crossed!! ;D
ballywing:
GOOD!! ;D
carly:
7:25 EST and no sign of the ravens yet this morning-I've been watching since 6:30

Even though they made an appearance at the nest later today, it still looks hopeful that they're in the process of moving on... The fact that nobody saw them in the nest all day long, and Bev saw them in other areas 'fooling around' :P near another nest is hopeful - it's a huge change in their routine from anything we've seen so far - and the first time that they've stayed away from the nest for so long - the quick appearance may have been a final 'goodbye' to their poor egg. :-\
Don't apologize for anything Bev - your focus is aimed at the Peregrines, and that's why we're all here in the first place. Doesn't stop us from caring about other creatures that come along - but everything possible has been done to help the Ravens evacuate the nest peacefully. Your frustration at their persistance is understandable. :-*
