!!! Hearn spot check, all three fledglings visible!

June 26, 2012 - Toronto - Hearn Power Station

CPF Postmaster Reports:

June 26th - 2012
A quick spot check of the Hearn nest site today yeilded good news! All three fledglings were in view and holding their altitude. Peter, (the resident adult male) is still holding his own with the food supply to feed his three offspring and so far so good!

We are further encouraged after having finally met Alex Smith, our OMNR area conservation officer, that he too is able to keep a watchful eye out on the site as he makes his daily rounds in the area.

We are delighted to report that despite the challenges at this nest site, that the Dufferin cement trucks that were parked directly out front and below the nest are now parking further to the west of the property and are no longer below and in front of the nest ledge.

In addition, there is other good news as updated news has come with regards to the injured resident adult female. She is now able to do some flying (and while although still experiencing some discomfort due to some minor swelling still evident on her wing wrist), she will soon be able to be released back to her family. We are hoping that by this time next week, it might be possible to return her back to her territory.

Also, we are slowly getting caught up on the huge backlog of photos and observation reports from most all of the nest sites, including that of the Hearn site, so stay tuned to see some of Anns best photos taken several months ago from the Hearn site.

Stay tuned as there is much more to come ……….
