I checked on KathyQ this morning 10:15 Ohio time. She was at the right side of the nest box, with her head tucked in, sleeping I guess. She held that position so long I started checking the traffic patterns behind her to see if traffic was moving, or was the cam stuck. (You must have some long lights in Indy) Finally she pulled her head out, did a little wing stretch and walked over to the left side of the box, where she was when I left... :snowflake5:

She is still on the left TSusan and I am hoping that is because her little friend is nearby. I did see her preening a little. Just wish someone would see the two of them in a compromising position!! :loveshow:

OBTW, Most of Indiana, including Indy, Ft. Wayne, South Bend and Petersburg [where there are cams], is on the same time as Ohio. Only the counties close to Chicago or southwest in the Evansville area align with Central time. It is soo confusing. :tantrum2:

Anyone else watching KathyQ around 11:14am? First frame she was on the edge, neck extended way to the left, looking expectantly. Next frame she had jumped into the box. The next several frames her head was tipped up like she was looking for her guy. Then her head comes down for 2 frames, and then she closed her eyes... :girlsad3:

She was in the box, then on the perch and now gone. Just in a few minutes.

Wonder if he's a youngster & not quite sure what's expected of him. I think an experienced tiercel would have hopped in the box by now, especially with as beautiful a falcon as KathyQ! :snowflake2:

I am wondering that too catwoman. I have not gotten a good enough look at him to make a guess. I just hope he and KathyQ are doing a lot more in private than on camera!

From Laura's Blog yesterday: :spring1:
"The following is a transcript of an interview I held with myself regarding the Indy Market Tower 2013 season and recent events. Believe me when I say, the interviewer didn’t hold anything back in her grilling of Laura Falconhead (LF).

Interviewer Q: The Indianapolis falcon scene has seen a lot of changes in the last 9 months. How has this impacted you?

LF A: Well, I think all my fellow falconheads know I was deeply saddened by the loss of our longtime falcon patriarch, Kinney, but glad that his body was found so we could all have closure of our loss – which I knew would/could be at anytime due to his age. So sadness and anxious – what will the future hold? I know alot of falconheads are sharing those same feelings.

Interviewer Q: It appears a new male is on the scene. How do you feel about that?

LF A: Kinney he is NOT! He is seemingly not as attentive as Kinney was. Kinney would have been in there scraping his way to the center of the earth by now in hopes of pleasing KQ (seems she is having to do that herself but without Kinney’s flourishing touches). New guy hasn’t even put his talons in the box to explore the gloriousness of this penthouse. That being said, it just proves that all falcons aren’t alike – just like us humans aren’t and it just makes the story that much more interesting.

Interviewer Q: What do you think – honestly – will happen in 2013 in regards to this falcon family?

LF A: Now that’s a toughie and I can only speak to what is in my gut. I do believe there will be a family to follow and that KQ and her new guy have been working on that out of our sight. She often is looking at somebody else just outside the box where he has been seen sitting by our eyes in the skies. I see two scrapes in the box and one that KQ seems to be particularly attracted to – as you look at the camera, it is in the upper left hand corner of the box. I say she is going to stick to her maternal schedule and mid- to late March will see the arrival of some eggs. The drive to reproduce is strong and although the new male doesn’t live up to our eggs-pectations (pretty darn high thanks to Kinney), if he delivers in the fertile department, he is okay by me.

Interviewer Q: Will the new male ever reveal himself?

LF A: HE’D BETTER (lol)! One of my earlier thoughts is that he might be the male from the IPL nest site on Indy’s southside but that conjecture is holding less appeal to me. I don’t think that male would hesitate to get in the box as he has no such reservations about entering the box down at IPL. Yes, some males are two-timers.

Well, thank you Laura Falconhead, for sharing your time and opinions. We’ll see how it all plays out – nature will have the last word. In the pics she provided, you can see KathyQ in the “preferred” scrape and a small attempt on her part to hollow out another one.

Thanks for sharing that, gigi...and what a creative idea!!

I agree...can't see this mystery male being from IPL...he has no problem going into the box!!

I wonder if this male has been trapped before!! Do Falcons have long term memory? I remember when they were trying to trap Lucy at Eagles4kids, she avoided both attempts. These were people that were experienced in trapping eagles. Their theory? Either Lucy is one very smart eagle or she had been trapped before. They had a term for it, but I can't remember what it was.

Well, let's hope he gets his act together. He's not gonna be able to incubate eggs by standing outside the box!!!

I am sure there will be some kind of naming contest!!

I have been to Grand Rapids a few times. Nice city [second largest in Michigan after Detroit] with the beautiful Meier Sculpture Gardens.
