Mississauga North Pair Still Active; Only Seeing One at a Time!
April 20, 2012 - International, National and Local News
Tracy Simpson Reports:
Frank, Toivo, Winston and I have all been tracking this new pair of peregrines that have settled themselves at Hurontario and Brittania Rd. directly between the Brampton Courthouse pair to the north and the MEC pair to the south. They have been very cautious and elusive in their activites related to the setting down of eggs and so we have been watching closely to see if the pair have decided whether they will be nesting and where. Frank, Toivo and I were on site monitoring today and found the female on the camera arm at the Purolator building getting ready for take off. She flew over to a building to the south where she stayed for about ten minutes; the male was nowhere to be seen. The female then took off and headed over towards the Wells Fargo building where she disappeared from our sightlines. A few minutes later, the male appeared on the same building the female had just left.
We believe that we witnessed a possible adult changeover commonly associated with incubation. We will be out this weekend to determine which site their interest is focussed on and whether incubation is underway. Check back soon!!
