Happy news that Peter is enjoying "the peregrine watch".
I think he is officially assimilated!!!! ::)
Great shots Bev!!!
bev.:
So I know the pictures were small but they were very high up and we could not get any closer to the site.
I hope that gives you a better idea of site
the weather was nice and it was a nice 50 minute drive from my house. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Peter even enjoyed it and he is getting quite the eye for spotting things now
bev.:
Now Mom has not been spending a lot of time in the box but she did today. We waited and waited. then I thought I saw a falcon soaring way out to the right of the sight but could not see where it went. WE heard them talking to each other so the other has to be close by . so where do they perch.
I would imagine the stack across would be good and thee are buildings right across .
so we decided to call it a day.
Well as we were driving back the way we came I saw the falcon. Poor Peter.
Had to pull off into the ditch. :grin: :grin:
there he was , perched high on a power pole. He could see the whole site from thee. the nest box would be out of view becasue it was on the opposite side of the stack from where he was perched but he could certainly see the ravens and whatever else he might need to see.
The wind ruffling his feathers
And so we drove further north(I think) to take some picutres of where he was in relation to the nest site. this time we could pull into a road access.
bev.:
now for the nest box. These are not grat but i tried. We can see them real big on our screen but we do not yet know how to transfer this you can see it. some know how and I guess I will jsut have to take some classes. I f I had the camera I had last year , you would see nothing There is a light right above it. As we were walking back up from below I saw a falcon fly into the nest box. We missed the shot. I figure it was feeding time.
We did manage to catch a glimpse of miniature chicks and I believe mom.
I will have to get Epcor clearance if I want to get any further in, and maybe if I have time my hubby can arrange it, but you know I am good with this. I feel so good knowing how secure they really are and how they are looked out for. this is what I wish for all our falcons. Picutres we took can even come close to how beautiful and wide open the area is, and they can soar free.
The cam is the white thing[/b]

Peter and I took a 50 minute drive in the country today to have a look at this site. Very secure and no one of importance was around and I need an Epcor contact to get in. my husband can get me this but I am good without it. so we did the best we could from a distance. I wills do this in several posts so keep reading until there is no more ;D ;D
Well I will only get this report done tonight. the pictures took awhile as we took so many. Now keep in mind that even with my new camera , we were very far away.
but I was so happy with the site. Nice and peaceful ,even with the work that is being done. very secure. I spent 30 minutes talking to the security guard at the gate. They did not know that a fourth egg had hatched so I will send pictures showing the 4 together to them.
And we could hear the falcons chupping to each other.
First I would like to give you a layout of the place from the back
Two big stacks with the nest box on one. Good places to perch. a pond to the left of the site and lots of trees and bushes. there were some ravens so I imagine they would have to watch out for them . there are several lakes not too far away. As a matter of fact I would love to live out there. I could be a keeper of the birds
