So, Durand finishes her dinner and Spark goes into the box in hopes she will follow (I guess..LOL)..she decides she would prefer to trot on down the ledge..its dark and there is no sound (I think they are working on it...)



part of Durand's band

I have no clue if Spark is still on the other end...Durand won't move!!!

I opened up the cam just now and a falcon (I found out it was Spark) was sitting with dinner. He was looking at something I was not sure what until on the ledge flew another falcon. She trotted over to the prey, grabbed it and did the D-drop- confirming that it was Durand. poor Spark tried picking at what was left then he went to the back of the ledge and I came here to post this. I am not sure where he is right now as it is dark on the back ledge.

The storm broke apart in the area and luckily we only got a timy bit of sleet and freezing rain...

Slowly trying to warming up...but much of this grayness is forecast for many more day's.

Ledge has been really active..and both have been hyper...I kept hoping to see a canoodle, maybe it had already happened and I missed it..

First round..


Spark on the far end...and Durand had been preening like she was covered in fleas..

Image

Durand took off and Spark flew toward the Ledge cam and landed (missed that). Durand returned and was really talking and bowing...of course, I thought.."this is it!!!"


Image

Spark said.."nope"...

Image

...and after a few more minutes of Durand talking and Spark pacing back and forth in front of the cam, he took off...as far as I know, Durand is still on the ledge somewhere..

Just saw a bonding session on ledge. Durand was near the ledge cam, walking back & forth chupping. She was bowing, and chupping, then I saw a shadow start walking down the ledge towards her. I'm guessing it was Spark. She was talking the whole time. He took off, I could see him fly in the distance, then Durand took flight.

I see Spark is being an excellent provider and courting Durand properly.

Someone just landed back on the ledge (12:08PM ET). Not 100% positive, but I think it might be Spark? Maybe? He was moving around quite a bit. He just took off. Someone landed down near nestbox on ledge, looked like they were going to go into box, but instead, flew down ledge and left.

Did they change the camera on the ledge? As SGB already said, they are very active today. (they keep looking at the ledge cam, or maybe they are looking at something in the distance that is behind the ledge cam).

Spark just landed. 32/B. in front of ledge cam & just took off again.

Lots of action. Either this is the cliff racing/flying courting segment, or maybe something is going on?

This may be the incident you have described, Mwplay




they are bouncing on and off the ledge today...I can't keep track...Spark has just landed and left twice..and is overly fascinated with the ledge cam..hormones are definitely up!!!
