West Winnipeg - 2009 / Ivy & Jules

[Liz]

Well said, allikat. 

Are you moving? 

[allikat]

Sorry everyone....I usually post here to let ya'll know that I see this pair twice a day every day! 
Sorry about that...as TPC noted, these two hang out at their usual spots.  I look for them every morning and afternoon and seem to luck out and find one of them and sometimes both of them...
I'm happy that they are both hangin' out together...which probably means that they are officially a couple.  Let's all hope that next year Ivy and Jules will be back and raise some beautiful falcons.  Other spotters will have to keep an eye or two out for them as I won't be able to.

Thanks TPC
I'll keep a lookout next time I'm in the area.

Little terrors were still around on the weekend, hanging out in all their usual places.  No renesting though, and pretty sure we are beyond both their hormonal window and our hopeful window 

Next year is another chance ....

Any updates on what the WW pair are up to? Haven't spotted them the last couple of times I have been in the area.

The pictures are just wonderful!  The quality is phenomenal!  What a great way for us to see these beautiful  birds as though they are in action!

Thanks Dennis

Thanks for all the photos Dennis.  We have been so fortunate to be so close to Jules and Ivy.  What beautiful birds.  You made them come alive for us.

Dennis,
I have seen one or both soaring in West Winnipeg when driving thru the area...it's ok I'm the passenger. Having seen your awesome pictures helps me to 'see them better' Thanks for documenting the lives of these beautiful birds.

Dennis....you're work is incredible!  Thank you for taking the time to get out there and take stunning photos of our peregrines!

To all the phanatics that have taken the time to post comments...thank-you. Not all photos are of printing quality...but will give you an idea of what can unfold in mere seconds. This is the reason that many photos have been posted. A Bird's Eye View...so to speak for those that are unable to view Birds in action.
Do to other events and circumstances at this time I'm unsure when I will be able to get to the West-End Birds again. These Peregrines are the most easily photographed birds do to their surrounding/location. Sorry that Trey & Princess didn't nest in a location like this to give easy access !!
Now, perhaps I should rent my own crane and platform...with tent and hang out with the birds ?? A lift for a morning cup of "Tim's" that Phanatics would provide of coarse...just kidding.
Looking forward to the "Banding Day"

Cheers !
Dennis

Thanks for all of the great photos Dennis.
Ivy was hanging out in his favourite spot this afternoon.  He is so gorgeous.  Let's hope that these two are successful next year.

Again...just wonderful photos Dennis! 
This pair is beautiful together...Crossing my fingers and toes that they will be back together again next summer and have a successful nesting season.
