Mason Doing Great.

May 26, 2014 - Mississauga - Executive Centre

Tracy Simpson Reports:

On Friday we officially scaled back the watch at the MEC nest site to spot checks as it seems that Mason has finally gotten it all together.  On Friday he was doing short flights between MEC 1 and 3 but nothing really spectacular as he was still trying to get his courage back up for big stuff.  Spot checks throughout the weekend by myself, Bruce and Winston had him trying new things and getting braver by the day.  Bruce and I watched him on Saturday take a flight off of the retaining wall of MEC 3 and fly right onto the window well of 2.  Not the prettiest of landings yet but still he is staying high, making very calculated flights and accomplishing them well.  This week Margaret will be doing some spot checking as well so we will keep you updated on his progress.

This watch could not have been successfully accomplished without the help of so many people working together to make it all possible.  Thank you to our nest site hosts, Colliers International, for all of their support especially Sante Esposito for his great assistance.  Garda Security at the MEC site was outstanding in supporting Mason through his rescues, his temporary housing and helping us to take good care of him.

Last but not least, the team.  What a team you are!  My cam specialist Katherine, we so needed your eyes manning the cam!  My watchers Margaret, Grace, Bruce, Winston, Shannon, Mark and Mary for being there throughout Mason’s adventures.  You are the absolute best!  Mason is now safely in the hands of his parents who will train him for his future role as a wild peregrine and it was this team effort (and three rescues) that made it all happen.  Thank you everyone!!
