Another male without a band - ironic ...

the thought occurred to me that we might be looking at an entirely new couple, but I thought the first one did look like Durand, No? And they seem comfortable on the ledge, except for the camera attack. I wish the other one would get on the cam, like Durand does sometimes.

Susan, I just hit the refresh and the new pic comes up after the blue screen...

Hmmm, still not working for me, but glad you can get it in case they go in there.

I was just thinking the same thing, Beth..

Obviously, Durand (?) is very comfortable having him on her ledge...

Sorry Susan, I meant the ledge cam...I can't get the nest cam either.

OK...I just went back and looked at one of my first recordings of this morning...Sounds like Durand to me...its a deep "cluck"...

...everyone keep watch if you can....I've gotta close some things down so that I can isolate some video...I'll be right back.

Ok SGB, thanks. So we're pretty sure it's Durand and pretty sure it's not Trooper. When I have the heart I'll look back and see if I can tell if this falcon looks like the falcon on the ledge the day of the battle. Probably not though since it's been so long.

Obviously, I can't be 100% for certain...but this sure sounds like Durand to me...

I froze a frame and blew it up SGB and I do see a black band on the leg.

Good thinking....looks black to me too...

This is just not Trooper behavior to me...

Geeeeeeeeeeeez...she's going into the box...and we can't see!!!!

Beth · **Posted:** Sun Dec 05, 2010 11:24 am

She seems ok with him being soooo close...

Well, that just clenched it for me...that was the Durand Dive!!!

I agree Carly....I do not think this is Trooper....I suppose I'll email Donna...and also see if she can fix one of the nest cams...just in case...

Maybe D and the new male have been meeting on campus, she wasn't bothered by him
on the ledge or near her box...

Here are a couple of more shots. Obviously, Durand has a new mate and I have to digest this, but I will be sick for a while. :cry:

Thanks for the pics, ljames...

I don't think anything's written in stone yet....If Trooper has migrated (like we think), it may be a while before he returns...so, we've got a lot of watching and waiting...I'm uploading a couple of videos "for Posterity"....be right back...had to cut the size down...
