They can fly!!
June 28, 2011 - Port Colborne - ADM Mill
Doug Garbutt Reports:
I have not had a chance to get out to the mill for the last 2 days so I was happy to be able to see the 2 young ones putting on quite an air show. The winds were very strong here all day long & when I got down to the lake they were even stronger which made great conditions for the new flyers. They took advantage by kiting around the sky hardly having to flap their wings at all. They were also tormenting the odd seagull or pigeon. In fact, as I watched Olivia through binoculars I noticed she was coming right at me and seemed to be getting rather close. I took my binocs away from my face just in time to see her stoop about 30 feet above me. All the time, Mom was watching from afar. I tried to get some pics but didn’t have any luck. I’ll try again tomorrow.
