Canada Square Getting Serious About the Season
March 19, 2013 - Toronto - Canada Square Building - Yonge and Eglinton
Bruce Massey Reports:
I stopped in at the Canada Square nest site on Saturday for a site check on Stormin and Haven as we are getting closer to the nesting season. At first I was able to locate Stormin on the south upper ledge of the Rio Can building but Haven was not to be seen. I did a walk about and found Haven on the south side of the TVO building and she was very active, flying off and then returning to the same corner. I repositioned myself back over at Duplex and Eglinton and sat down waiting for some action. I was not disappointed. Haven came flying in and landed on the south face of the Rio Can a few floors directly below Stormin. The male kept looking down at her and watching her body language as she sat roosting. Believing her to be receptive, Stormin took off of the roof ledge and flew down to mate with Haven. Success!! He then returned to the Rio Can roof and they both preened for a while. Haven then took off like a bullet to the south with Stormin hot on her tail and the pair of them were chasing something quite vigorously. All I can say is that there is a Kestrel out there that won’t be hanging around THEIR nest anymore!! Haven returned to the Rio Can to roost and Stormin positioned himself on the upright above the old nest ledge. It was great to see the pair in action and that spring is most definately on track here.
