Territorial and still holding firm!
June 03, 2011 - Ottawa - Delta Ottawa City Centre
CPF Postmaster Reports:
Friday, June 3, 2011 — 7:35 a.m. — The Delta Ottawa City Centre rooftop was a busy place this morning. I observed an adult falcon perched on the SW corner of the rooftop for about 5 minutes. It then took to the skies to land on the NW corner. Within moments it took off again and headed towards Place de Ville Tower C. It was ¾ of the way up the building hovering by the window as if someone had been disturbing it. From my vantage point at street level I could not see what was happening inside the building but someone must have been disturbing the falcon. After vocalizing its message loud and clear it headed back and hovered near the nest area and then took off towards the SE corner of the rooftop where it remained when I left at 7:50 a.m.
Friday, June 3, 2011 — 12:20 p.m. — I was across the street from the Delta Ottawa City Centre and looked up to see an adult falcon on the SW corner of the hotel rooftop. It was keeping watch towards the east of the downtown core.
12:25 p.m. — The other adult (I assume that it was Diana.) hopped onto the NW corner from inside the rooftop and was observed stretching her wings. She was vocalizing loudly for a good two minutes and was observed looking towards the nest area. The adult male wisely remained on the SW corner during this period.
Enjoy your weekend! Take care and keep smiling!
Ciao,
N. McKenna
