I also watched the HBO special on Birders in Central Park. It was fascinating!

SO NIECEY WAS ON THE STICK, SHE FLEW OVER TO THE POINT OF THE UNIV AND SAT THERE FOR A FEW MINS. THERE WAS SOMETHING NOT FAR DOWN FROM HER THAT I THOUGHT MIGHT BE LIL DAD, BUT I WASN'T SURE. THEN SHE FLEW BACK OVER TO THE STICK. IN THE MEANTIME, I FOUND A BABY CATBIRD OUT FRONT ON THE SIDEWALK THAT COULDN'T FLY TOO WELL, FINALLY GOT HIM ACROSS THE STREET IN A SAFER AREA, BOY, THAT LIL THING WAS PUTTING IT'S TAIL UP AND SWITCHING IT AT ME. HE WAS SO CUTE. DARN, SHOULD HAVE HAD MY CAMERA WITH ME! ANYWAYS, I WENT UPSTAIRS TO SEE WHAT THAT WAS ON THE UNIV ABOUT 3 FOOT FROM THE POINT WHERE NIECEY WAS SITTING AND IT WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BLACK AND WHITE AND ALIVE PIGEON I'VE EVER SEEN! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT? SHE WAS OVER THERE SITTING RIGHT BESIDE IT FOR A COUPLE OF MINS! SHE DID MAKE SOME NOISE WHEN SHE CAME BACK OVER TO THE STICK. I'M GUESSING SHE'S THE ONE WHO ATE THE MODO ( LOTS OF MODO FEATHERS AROUND THIS MORNING) SINCE SHE DIDN'T SCARE OFF THE PIGEON SO SHE COULD CATCH IT. THE PIGEON THEN TOOK IT'S CHANCES AND FLEW OUT TOWARDS THE RIVER SAFELY :-)

OMG Reenie!! What a story this early in the morning! You are the "keeper" of the wild life around that building. Hope Mama Catbird is happy that you saved her Baby! LOL! That pigeon is just like the House Finch that sit along side the Falcon's in Wilmington. I guess as long as they are sitting, they are safe. Great day so far!

Don't see anyone at the moment. The Point and the end of the ledge are all I saw today so far.

Another view and there she is....Niecey on the stick! Hurray!

FALCONWIRE:

8/8/2012 :: Update from the Ledge
The live stream video has ended for the season. The still image capture is available year-round. The adult pair has been spending time together at the ledge and throughout the city. This is good news in that it indicates their pair bond is strong and the outlook for the next breeding season is good.

SOMEONE WAS ON THE STICK WHEN I GOT IN THIS MORNING. THEY CALLED OUT AND THEN MOVED TO THE TOP OF THE GLASS ENCLOSURE. FOUND ALOT OF DOVE FEATHERS AND SOME WHITE PIGEON FEATHERS :-(

SURE HOPE IT WASN'T THE BLACK AND WHITE PIGEON I SAW YESTERDAY.
