All is well in Port Colborne

December 29, 2009 - Port Colborne - ADM Mill

Doug Garbutt Reports:
We still have two crazy active falcons here !!!!!!!!!! They seem to like the snow.

( and Dennis will like this-- Dennis this is where they saw Rotor, not that long ago with a Canada goose for prey).  Rotor is not one of the above, but come spring, who knows..)

An update from the CPF site:

June 17, 2009 - Port Colborne - ADM Mill

Doug Garbutt Reports:

Thanks to Carol Phillips our friend in Rochester N.Y. the new falcon here has been ID’d. M/82, black/green is Treasure (female) hatched at the Terminal Tower Cleveland Ohio Apr. 27 2007. We’re not sure if she has taken over the nest box but has been here for a week or so that we know of and could be more. Falcon activity here is abound, however not producing young ones which is very discouraging. We are keeping a close eye to see if Millie is still in the picture. Next year is another year & hopefully we have a dominant pair that can have a successfull brood. All I know is that every falcon we see here is impressive & special.

The Peregrine Chick:
T-Rex did the same thing when his father disappeared mid-incubation at the Radisson.  So it appears to depend on the site, birds, battles, timing, phase of the moon, ...

bev.:
Two years ago in Ft.  SAskatchewan , the transmitter male came back late. The female ,hisold mate, already had eggs.  The Transmittter male defeated the new male and went on to help the female incubate and raise the young.

carly:
Yes it does help thank you.  Sure seems to be alot of drama in Southern Ontario this year.

I anxiously await to hear who the victor in the dispute was, was it Freedom come back to claim his nest site, was it the male who defeated him or...was it someone totally new.  I'm surprised he mentioned Millie as earlier they said both male and female were new...more to this tale than meets the eye.
