I am so excited Carly. I knew she would take to it right away. I am sure she did not knock that egg off on purpose. We get to watch yet another of Mariahs kids.

This is done all the time and she knows what to do with a box. She was raised in one.

It is great that there are interested people watching her also.

Easter miracles :eastergirl:

I would not be surprised to see a cam ihere in future if Harlequin romance people involved :loveshow:

WOW....what a fascinating read!!! I wonder if Kendal and Flyboy are related!!! Thanks for posting that link, Carly...I really look forward to upcoming reports...Wouldn't it be something if "Ms Harlequin Romance" set up a cam with a zoom lens..?!!!

That's wonderful news about Quest and Kendall and about all that the CPF did for them - identifying them, monitoring them, building and installing a nice nest box, and continuing to follow up. And it's great that Quest took to that nest box right away and even laid another egg!

Thanks, Carly, for your posts and your links to the reports and pictures.

Quest and Kendal

From the CPF site:

Kendal Learns to Incubate!

April 24, 2011 - Toronto - Don Mills

Tracy Simpson Reports:

Bruce Massey was on-site today at the 220 Duncan Mill Road nest site and was able to witness a change over in adults. Kendal flew in to the tray and landed on the edge of it while Quest lay incubating the eggs. Taking this as a signal for her time off of them, Quest took off of the tray leaving a clearly bewildered Kendal watching her fly up to the adjacent building. He sat, looked over his shoulder to the bare concrete corner and then back to the eggs. It didn;t take but a moment for the male to step into the tray and nestle down on top of the awaiting eggs. It would appear that Kendal, our young resident male, has been shown and no doubt told what is expected of him and it would seem that this afternoon… …he now gets it!! Excellent news from Bruce as this 2 year old male finally catches on to the situation!!!

Big Frank just posted this on FaceBook Via Rochester:

I'm back from Quest and Kendals place, where I met "The Rochester Gang" We enjoyed views of Kendal with food,while Quest dutifully sat on her eggs. I couldnt stay as long as I would have like but was glad to see the site be shown to the Falcon Suite and be introduced to Don and Kathryn. They have nesting Canada Geese in their parking lot at Harlequin too which they all enjoy. So far they have 2 hatches.

Video soon!

Can;t wait to see all their photos, they were so excited to come visit Quest. If I had been off I would have gone out to see them. Hopefully when they band her chicks - I'll be able to meet Carol. I'd like to thank her in person for saving Mariah's life that day.

When you meet her thank her for me also. I am in contact with Joyce who is a Rochester faithful.

thanks for all the updates, everyone. Yup, there will be a am there next year..

CArly, was Snowball the female that went missing and then Mercury raised the chicks himself(with I think the help of a few quail?)

Thanks for all the updates on Quest and Kendall. It's great to see that they've really taken to their new nestbox and wonderful to see the video with the Rochester folks visiting.

The CPF and Harlequin Enterprises are to be commended for all they've done to help this falcon pair.
