How very sad. Poor little Ranger. What a shame she and her mate were never able to have a successful nest. :tissue:

Carly, thankyou so much for posting the report about the North Brampton falcons. As you probably remember Midnight is from Canton, OH. sister of Moxie from Ft. Wayne.

Linn and Rueben On Site at Yellow Pages
March 27, 2014 - Scarborough - Yellow Pages
Tracy Simpson Reports:

Coming back through the city from Bowmanville, I decided to take a break from driving and stop in at Yellow Pages to check in on Linn and Rueben. I found Rueben almost right away on the southwest ledges of the building sunning himself. Up that high all I could see at first was a white dot that was out of place on the dark building and the binoculars revealed a preening Rueben. I scanned around for Linn and couldn’t find her at first but a check of her favorite roosts helped me to locate her. She was also sunning herself on the Investors Group sign and pushing down a nice crop of food.

I was able to confirm Linn’s band number, Black 91 over Green V, and get a few photos of the lovely lady up on the sign. We look forward to season with the pair and will be watching to see what ledge they choose to nest on this year.

Good to hear they're both there! Linn was hatched in Rochester in 2007, daughter of Mariah and Kaver! :sham3:

Mississauga is back! New nestbox and incubation? in process!! Thanks To ALL who participated in getting this accomplished!! :loveshow:

New nest box looks great! No info on how many eggs yet.
I don't where I got it from, but on my calendar the first egg is listed as laid on March 11 :egg16:

That would be four days after they installed the new nest box. On March 24 they were in full incubation.

Oh Carly, thank you for this report on Hunter and Seven! A grand daughter of our Maverick from Canton Oh.!

Tsusan · **Posted:** Mon Apr 07, 2014 6:13 pm

Another question for you, isn't Hunter related to Maverick? Seems like Hunter and Maverick were brothers? Or am I mistaken?

Matrix · **Posted:** Tue Apr 08, 2014 10:01 pm

Awesome News about "Seven"!! It especially is since I just returned from a trip to Niagara Falls..Got pics of Diamond and her mate...Will put a few up on here, and a album on Canton's facebook page tomorrow (Wed) night! :loveshow:

Carly, thankyou for posting the pictures of Castor and "Mystery's" brood! Im glad he had good success this year! (I think last year it took them a while to decide where to nest) ?
ALSO - I love the pictures on CPF of the Holcim babies. Do you know if the adult there is Caspian, who hatched in Canton, Oh.? A great picture of an annoyed falcon....

Mississauga's Raptors have friends in high places
It was rainy, foggy and dank on Wednesday morning when John Millar began his descent.

A trap door opened on the roof of the baghouse which sits among the huge chimneys that dot the landscape at the Holcim cement plant on the Clarkson waterfront.
Millar, an experienced rock climber who also happens to work for the public works department of the City of Mississauga, carefully began lowering himself by rope to his destination below.
Once he hit the rooftop some 30-40 ft. down, Millar scooped four fluffy peregrine falcon chicks from the ledge where their stoney nest lay, and placed them cautiously into a large gym bag which was passed along to Ministry of Natural Resources biologist Mark Heaton.
Story & pictures here:

SO AWESOME, Kittenface! What a great story! Thank you so much for bringing it over to BCAW. I think you know I have a special interest in Caspian as she was hatched here in Ohio!
