Day 39

June 05, 2009 - Etobicoke - Sun Life Centre

Kathy Reports:

Lots of excitement today but no fledges yet!  Bruce and myself spent the day being quite entertained by our resident family today.  Early morning saw alot of wing flapping by all three young on the ledge.  One of the males was getting some good lift on the ledge and batting up the back of the wall so we thought for sure he was going to give flying a try today. 

The parents did their best to try and entice one or more off the ledge by doing fly-bys and showing them flight paths they might want to take but no takers!  At one point when it did look like the young male would take off, we suddenly hear the female alarm calling and circling the roof area frantically.  The male then came rushing in and dropped off some food to keep them occupied and then he sat in front of them and joined in the alarm calling.  Not sure what had them concerned however they obviously felt it was not the moment to have a young one in the air trying out his wings for the first time.

Dusk last night saw all three still on the ledge.  We will see what tomorrow brings..
