May 20th 2011
Great news indeed! A huge thank you to the Yellow Pages security and their of their support, we were able to confirm a hatch today. Today offered the first sunny day after more than a week of blustery winds and rain, we were finally able todo another site visit to check on the Yellow Pages birds. We are very excited to report that todays observations yeilded a confirmation of a hatch! Given the visual we were able to get of the hatchling, it is believed that the young hatchling is approx. three days old. While the resident adult female was not giving much up as she stay firmly planted to the nest bowl, we did get a peek of at least one new born hatchling. The resident male was on hand to show his support to his mate, although the pair were very quiet throughout our visit. We believe that the young hatchling was hatched on Wednesday May 18th given its size.. We were unable to see any unhatch eggs or other young during this visit, but it is believed that their could be more young that have hatched.
Stay tuned…..

May 20, 2011 - Windsor - Ambassador Bridge
Dennis Patrick Reports:
May 16 Dennis stopped by the Bridge to check on the family of Peregrine’s, Voltaire was on the chicks, half an hour later she flew off to the East and came back with food for the feeding while Freddie was on the Tower. Yesterday morning (6:30 A.M.) and this morning we stopped by the Bridge but it was so foggy all we could see was Freddie on the pipe and Voltaire on the Nest. Hopefully tomrrow morning it will be just clear so we can see some action with feeding. Have a great long weekend.

CPF Postmaster Reports:
Finally got to see a feeding…
I was up at Ambassador Bridge today in the pouring rain waiting to see a feeding.. I new it was time the babies were very vocal…. After a long two hour wait, Freddie finally flew in food and a feeding started… The babies were quiet and happy in the end… Well worth the wait…

May 19, 2011 - Toronto - King Street
Linda Woods Reports:
Today, I was only able to see the original two hatches. One egg appears to be outside the ‘brooding” area. One egg could still be under the camera view, but she is not incubating that egg either. With the nicer weather predicted, it may show me more this weekend.
So, far only two hatches for King St. I don’t think they other two will hatch since it’s past the predicted hatch dates. But one never knows. It could be like last year, where one egg hatch days after expected. We could still have a little surprise. I’ll keep checking.

May 17, 2011 - Toronto - King Street
Linda Woods Reports:
Another check on the King St. nest did not show me any new hatch. The two little ones are still tucked under the camera view. I only saw two little white heads poke their heads into the camera view this morning. Hopefully with warmer weather expected on Friday, the adults will move the little ones back into view of the camera.

Tracy Simpson Reports:
I was at the Canada Square Building site today in the hopes of seeing whether all three eggs have hatched as of yet. If it were at all possible, our resident mother falcon would have had a “Do Not Disturb” sign hung on the outside of the ledge as she enjoyed a deep sleep with her precious young tucked beneath her. In the 2 hours that I was there, she didn’t raise up once and allow me to see what she has hidden beneath her feathers but I was able to confirm two little white rear ends sticking out from underneath Mom. On a cold and damp day such as today, I can’t blame the chicks for snuggling into the female parent as tightly as space would allow. I will be back on-site on Thursday as the temperature will be warmer and the skies a little sunnier which should allow me to confirm whether all three have indeed hatched. Once again, a huge congratulations to the floks at the Canada Square Building and an equally enormous thank you to Neil Armstrong and the staff at Northern Realty Advisors Ltd. for being such incredible hosts of this pair of falcons!!

Important news, as we have been able to confirm a banding date for the Toronto King Street hatchlings.
With a huge thank you to Solar window washing services, the property managers Avison Young and OMNR, (not to forget all of the dedicated hard working CPF folks behind the scenes coordinating all those involved in the event), we are pleased to announce a banding date of June 3rd for Avison Young’s newest family members at the 18 King Street nest site.
Sadly, Rogers cable has not yet fixed the internet service and so far, we are not able to get the live camera image to the CPF web site for your viewing. We are hope full that the service will be repaired so we can resume the updated images of the happenings on the nest ledge.
Stay tuned……..

I was up at the Ambassador Bridge tonight. Voltaire was just finishing a feeding when I walked up.. Freddie was putting on a show flying in and out of the nest. Flying all over and ending on the church. I was able to snap a few photos.
