Let's hope and pray it's not Frounce.

@Catwoman: You are right, I had not thought of that! :girlsad3:

Lil' Dad arrived with prey.

ljames · **Posted:** Thu May 17, 2012 11:38 am

Little one just backed up for a closeup poop shot. Never did see Lil' Dad again after the prey shot, but babies seem to be busy down there and pretty quiet so maybe he dropped it off.

It seemed to me that the boys started self-feeding sooner than in previous years, so it's probably a good thing that they are doing pretty well with it given the current situation.

I was afraid it might be Trich or something even more serious when Reenie mentioned the white foamy stuff, and the way NG was trying to swallow. I know Trich gives white spots inside the mouth, so I didn't know if it would cause the bubbles, but I was afraid she might have eaten poisoned prey. I didn't want to say anything here about that, but since we know something serious is wrong, I'm mentioning it now as another possibility. I hate this.

New message on Falcon Wire News. Just checked my email and it was there.

Reenie will probably see it and post it. Sorry I don't know how. It refers to Ng being injuried or ill and they are doing what they can to try and locate her.

Here's the Falcon Wire News:

5/17/2012 :: Falcon Sightings
The adult resident female has sustained an injury or disease that has rendered her unable to effectively hunt, feed herself and the eyases. The male has redoubled his hunting activities and is providing for the eyases. DEP staff has been trying to locate the female in hopes of live capturing her for treatment at a nearby wildlife rehabilitation center. Any information on her whereabouts would be appreciated. The female is one third larger than the male and is not banded. The male is banded. Falcon watchers can report information via the falcon page email account or call DEP's Environmental Education Center at 717 772-1828.

Lil Dad back with a yellow bird .

eiguoc · **Posted:** Thu May 17, 2012 12:30 pm

DAD just came in & flew of shortly there after

ljames · **Posted:** Thu May 17, 2012 12:33 pm

That looked very fresh to me, I have to think he dropped it off . Those chicks are just out of view. Also I've noticed that they speed up when they run by the camera.
:egg13:

I also missed the shot of Lil' Dad and the prey.

Glad to hear from the Wire News that they are willing to help NG if she can be found! :egg 19:

ljames · **Posted:** Thu May 17, 2012 12:42 pm

That's a big IF, but I do so appreciate their willingness to help her. It's hard to think about where she might be and what condition she is in. With all those rooftops, big challenge. But somehow they turn up at the train station when in trouble so they might look there just in case. :egg15:

SPENT LUNCHTIME WALKING DOWN TO PENNDOT AND BACK. ALONG THE RIVER AND UNDER THE BRIDGES ON THE WAY DOWN AND ON THE UPPER SIDE ON THE WAY BACK. SAW EVERYTHING BUT A FALCON DOWN THERE. WHEN WE GOT BACK, LIL DAD WAS ON THE CORNER OF 333 MARKET. ONE THING I NOTICED IS THAT SINCE NG IS GONE, LIL DAD FACES THE UNIV WHEN HE SITS UP THERE WHERE AS BEFORE HE USED TO FACE THE OTHER WAY. NOT SURE IF THIS MEANS ANYTHING AT ALL OR NOT. I KNOW HE'S LOOKING FOR HER THOUGH, POOR THING.

ONE CHICK IN FRONT OF THE SCRAPE ONE ON THE STICK ON THE LEDGE. THAT IS NOT LIL DAD DOWN THERE CRICKET.

If nothing else, I am thankful that DEP has put the word out. . hopefully more HBG residents/watchers will keep their eyes and ears open in hopes of spotting her ..

thanks for taking your lunch time to look for her, Reenie. .has somebody checked the university? It sure would be nice if Lil' Dad would lead the way .. that is one way they spotted Archer's (Rochester) Location .. they watched the female. . .let's hope HBG watchers can be that lucky. .
