I didn't take a shot but it was definitely Radisson.  She seemed agitated, looking down and her mouth was open like she was vocalizing.  It was the looking down that made me hesitate to say anything as I figured another falcon would be flying high and overhead but could just have been something flying through at a lower altitude??

She has not been back since then, I'm glued to the monitor awaiting her return.  Hopefully it will turn out to be only brekkie she was after.

Yes I saw that too, didn't want to comment on it just in case it was nothing or just me being paranoid.  Let's hope it's not what we think it is.

Falcon at the box, looking down and looking upset.

She is being a real early bird this morning. I am hoping that if the transmitter girl comes by and sees her there she will just continue on.

Well no sign of either Radisson or dad at the moment, so I"m off to sleep.  I will catch the early shift and hope it continues to stay peaceful as I left it  ;)

they will probably just move the egg to a corner or bury it in the gravel.that is what I was told by one of the biologists.

6:27pm

I am off now
Radisson on the inside lip. and now inside and then back on lip.
You know if I could get down there tonight I would :( :(
She is off again but this is the time they fly around . Well the times I have been down there this week this was a meal time hunt or jsut a fly around .
she is back again facing in.

Radisson came in and sat on the perch for a minute then looked up and over and took off like a shot..let's hope it's just dinner that's caught her attention  :-X

Whew..it was only dad, they came back together and are in the box bowing to each other again..I love when they do that  :P

No worries Maggie, I knew you were kidding.  And yeah the feet...partly shaded balcony this time of year and feet were in the sun.  They're like a falcons' feet now, big and bright  :P

Speaking of falcons as I feel a shovel coming ..... Radisson is in and out alot this evening.
