And Then There Were Three at MEC!!!!
April 19, 2012 - Mississauga - Executive Centre
Tracy Simpson Reports:
This has been a very exciting week for us as we have criss crossed the GTA spending time with our supporters celebrating Earth Week. This afternoon, prior to our visit at one of the TD Canada Trust branches in Mississauga, Frank and I stopped in to check on our new parents at the Mississauga Executive Centre. Just a few days ago, this pair became the proud parents of the first peregrine hatch of 2012 and today there was much to be seen on the monitor. A very determined female stood as best as she could over the wiggling pile of fluff beneath her and tried to contain them within the nest scrape. I was able to see two chicks for sure actively moving underneath her and suspected that there was a third. The presence of that third chick was confirmed by Marco of Oxford Properties and I can’t thank him enough for all of his assistance and efforts over the past few weeks as we have been trying to get the camera working once again. We are so excited for MEC and are working feverishly to get the camera up and running again as we continue to tackle the software issues that are causing the image to be inconsistent. Congratulations MEC and we await the hatching of the final egg!!! Check back shortly as we will post some pictures of the new family.
