June 20 Friday KING
So the falcon has moved the last old egg out to the front of her box
I'd sure like to analyze those eggs
I was reading an article online when movement drew my attention .....
Its one thing to observe, but another thing to know what I see.

6 am WHAT is this encounter? Are both of these the new pair? ... or .....
One flew off, the other entered the box, beeked the egg, appeared to get into an egg-laying postition - surely falcons dont lay eggs in June?
5.09 - flies off



Image


Rosey dawn - too pretty to pass up!

June 20 Friday BLACK DOG
4.30 am How can you resist snipping - 4 headless falcons! LOL!
All 4 kids and Mom are there. Three have a keen interest in - out there.
One peers around the box - to my right. (red band?)
I bet they venture out of the box today.
One was out of view yesterday but returned when Mom came.


HEADLESS FALCONS!

All lined up ready for breakfast!

Peeks around the corner, checks possible escape!

Jun 20 - blackdog 6.14 am The male perched to my left flapped outside
When he flaps I see wingtip but he is off cam of my left
Then he moves to perch crossbar to box to flap and annoy / taunt his sibling - successfully. LOL

7.33 Came back with cheese samich and 2nd male off cam and girls fighting over prey
10 am Lets see - can I get UP there?
11.20 am The male who spends time off cam flew back inside
- I wish they'd pull cam back so we can see more now

I just cant resist this one!

Can I get UP there?

Yeah it calmed down for awhile then went bonkers again.
I wish black dog would move cam BACK! Kids are leaving box now.
I see the little males go in and out - but VANISH after they exit box.
I did see tail flicks from the one who leaped to the perch.
Other fledglings inside box got irritated with her nasty temper.
ONE falcon is laying in the corner behind her - the other 2 outside.

June 21 Saturday BLACK DOG
5 am All 4 kids inside box, but 1 wants out. What? Before breakfast?
5.50 am 1 hops easily and smoothly to the perch and flaps. What was daunting yesterday is easy today!
He looks up on top of box - Will he try that next? The one female still acts angry.
6 am both males outside off cam, 1 female perches on edge of nestbox, El Crabbo just looks out.
El Crabbo will have to do, as I dont think we can use the b**h word for a bird. :sum8:

---------

June 21 Saturday KING beautiful dawn
5 am There she is, swimming in box
5.30 gone
Evidently falcons scrape / swim in the pebbles even if not nesting.
6 am Can I assume this snip is the male - long legs?

10 am I can see the little guy on the right outside - there is space there. Cute! His lil tail.
Adorable! It appears he is laying down - has a breeze on his belly thru the grate.
The way one keeps looking UP - I wonder if one male is up on the roof
WISH CAM WAS MOVED BACK! .. oh .. I said that before .. . sorry .....

I got a snip of him stretching outside box before he went in - but its too blurry
Got a cute snip of his eye

June 23 Monday BLACK DOG
6 am Only 2 inside box, meaning mom needs to bring food to them - and the outsiders.
She brings prey in and is attacked - drops it and exits, the 2 inside fight over it.
Did I say I wish they pulled the cam back so we can see the others?
7.20 am Mom came in with prey - stayed and fed kids
Just a little bit of down is blowin in the wind now.

June 26 Thursday - The BLACK DOG BABES
The 2 girls went back in the box overnite (thanks Nora!) and dawn found them there.
I observed them Wednesday evening on the perch - and around the side on the grate - to my right. I dont call that a fledge - just exiting the box to the - playground.

Snip - the fledgling on the outer perch is being crazy, goofy, silly - appears to consider the roof
Funny how birds have personalities - quiet, crazy, timid, funny
The one female is just goofy the other is so sweet.


Owl - or falcon?
Somehow she looked kinda owly to me this morning ;D

Image



Image


O WAIT - Perhaps the first 2 males HAVENT fledged yet -
depending what one calls a fledge. After I posted the first 2 snips, the 3rd showed up.
