Kitchener - CTV-Bell Media Tower

March 30 – Fraser was at the KCI parking lot at 8:25 and initially no peregrines were present on the CTV Bell Media tower. Just as Fraser was leaving, one flew in and landed on the box and within seconds the second peregrine arrived and perched on the tower. The first bird disappeared inside the box while the other remained on the tower. The birds were still there when Fraser left around 10 minutes later. At 5:30, Lisa was watching and saw one of the peregrines sitting on the balcony of the nest box. After about 15 minutes, the other grine flew into the nest box and both went inside. One flew out right away and cirlcled around to the media tower onto King’s Towers on the platform under the top drum and kept a watchful eye on the nest box calling from time to time. The other grine stayed inside the nest box for the rest of the time until Lisa left the watch at about 6:15.

On Friday, April 2, Dale was down at CTV and watched the live feed from the nest webcam. Mystery was hunkered down on the eggs and she has laid a third egg! Caster was off hunting from 12:30 to 1:30. Dale also observed with binoculars from the KW Hospital parking garage, Mystery in the nest box, not quite at eye level but still clearly in sight. Later on at around 4:00, Janice observed Mystery at the Sun Life tower having an early supper eating a fairly large bird. Full time incubation has not quite started yet judging by this observation.
