Quick Stop at Etobicoke Sun Life; Two Juvies Back Home and Euro Creating Havoc!!

June 27, 2012 - Etobicoke - Sun Life Centre

Tracy Simpson Reports:

I was in the area on Monday at the Etobicoke Sun Life nest site and stopped at Eagle Road and Bloor St. for a quick look around for the three remaining young ones.  As I pulled up, I could clearly see the two females, Olympia and Windward, relaxing on the nest ledge preening the day away.  It was nice to see that both of the girls are using the nest ledge as home base during this next phase of training.  I looked for adults but was unable to spot either Jack or O’Connor in my immediate view so I left the site for an appointment in the Royal York area.  As I was travelling along Bloor St., the pigeons in the park on the north side of the street were in a panic flight and right in the middle of the flock was young Euro looking quite sharp and pleased with the havoc he had created.  It was plain to see that he was learning how to separate one from the flock as part of a successful hunting strategy.  Although I could not see her, I know O’Connor was close by overseeing her son learning this most important skill.
