!!! Let the Games Begin!

Kathy Reports:
As any tiercel with two mates will tell you, you have to start early if you want to stay on track. True to form and almost to the same date that I first started observing courtship behaviours last year - today Jack was in fine form.
First he caught a nice fat pigeon for her to dine on. It was a big one too and he was flying quite low due to it’s weight - it just took my breath away to see him so close above me! He flew all the way down the road with O’connor cheering him on excitedly and flying after him..in case he dropped it no doubt
He landed on the glass condos down the street - which is not his usual place but given the size of the prey I’m thinking he needed the runway to gain altitude. He then proceeded to prepare it and after indulging a bit himself brought it over to the center tower for O’connor to dine on.
I also witnessed some fancy flying earlier and both were in the nest box chit chatting at one point. Let’s hope for a trouble free courtship this year!
