William Osler; What a Day!!!

August 12, 2012 - Etobicoke - William Osler

Tracy Simpson Reports:

Lots of people are out this weekend watching the meteor shower as it is one of the neatest events we get to see in the fall.  Today at William Osler, Tobi and Ossie were the greatest show on earth!!!  When I arrived, I found a frazzled Chessie sitting on the eastern “H” and could not see, but oh boy could I hear, two distinct juvenile voices wailing away.  I found the two of them on the southern side of the building sitting two pillars apart and screaming for food in unison; their trademark.  After about 5 minutes of this, Tobi was done waiting and flew around the corner and stooped Chessie knocking her clear off of her perch.  Chessie flew around to the north and circled the building with Tobi right on her tail.  As they came around to the south side, Ossie joined the chase and now both juveniles were chasing Mom in circles around the nest building.  After about 4 revolutions, Chessie broke off and headed north and the two kids landed on the north ledge of the building.  Tobi had ants in her pants and couldn’t sit still for more than a few minutes as she would fly off and pull maneovers that I would swear only a more seasoned adult could pull.  She would turn into the wind, hover off of the ledge for a second or two, swoop around the building just inches away from the face of it and then stall and land on a roof antenna.  Ossie then took off and landed on the northern “H” sign and was content to play with “gack” that he found up there.  Tobi took off of the antenna, flew around the building to the south and came in overtop of the building into a short stoop on her brother.  Twice she circled the building and swooped up to land right on top of Ossie which of course made him scream.  He didn’t like this game cause he wasn’t winning.  She took off of the sign with Ossie in hot pursuit and as she tried to land on the northeast corner of the roof, Ossie came in fast behind her and tried to grab her by the tail.  She didn’t like THIS game cause SHE wasn’t winning.  And so this incredible daredevil stun / comedy show went on for another 20 minutes that had me laughing pretty hard for quite a while afterwards.  I left the two to their antics with the promise of my return to video tape this mayhem because words do not do justice to the display I witnessed today.  It was the greatest show on earth.
