Still In The Neighbourhood
July 19, 2009 - Etobicoke - William Osler
Bruce Massey Reports:
Spent around 10-12 Hrs at the William Ossler Nest Site over the last 2 days. Did 2 AM Shifts, and 1 PM. Unfortunately, most of the Observations were in the first Hour of the Morning, when the light was bad. However, saw what I thought was the 2 Adults, and at least 1 of the Juviniles, Apollo. I however did not see the Female Juvinile, Katarina. This however, wasn’t all that surprising as she was the best of the 3 Juviniles, she never came to ground, and on her first flight she didn’t come to the ground, instead she made it back to the nest in 5 flights the same day. Another reason I’m not worried is that each day the Female Adult left by 0600 Hrs. and wasn’t seen again and I suspect was keeping a eye on Katrina.
That said, Apollo definitely has an Attitude, he started Sunday by rousting some gulls over by the Plaza to the North of the Hospital. The gulls were not amused. Anyway, stand by for future observations from this site.
