!!! Hanging with Mom!

September 24, 2013 - Etobicoke - Sun Life Centre

Kathy Reports:

I spent a half hour on lunch today watching Frank and O’Connor and if I hadn’t have seen it with my own eyes I wouldn’t have believed it.  Frank was perched on the ‘N’ of the Moneris sign and O’Connor was perched on the bottom half of the ‘S’.   Both quiet, Frank with a full crop dozing in amiable silence.  After about 25 minutes - O’Connor vocalized to him - the same way she does with Jack to indicate she’s leaving!  She then flew over the back of the nest site building and perched there.

So she is not only tolerating his presence, she is actively engaging with him..what a great falcon she is!!

I did see Jack today and noticed that when he was visible, there was no sign of Frank around and O’Connor didn’t move from her perch as he went to the nest ledge to preen.  Interesting dynamics going on here.

Caught this wicked photo of Jack taking off today!
