More News From Michigan. Majesty Enjoying Her New Tray

May 10, 2015 - Toronto - King Street

Tracy Simpson Reports:

Thank you so much to Barb Baldinger and Chris Becher from Michigan for this update.  Majesty, daughter of Kingsley and Victoria, was hatched in 2002 at 18 King Street and along with her 4 siblings was rescued by the CPF when both resident adults were recovered deceased.  The famous 5 were then taken to our avian vet for re-hydration and health check before coming to the CPF Raptor Centre and being cared for until they were ready for hack release in Richmond Hill.  Of the 5 chicks, Majesty went on to nest in Flint, Michigan with Barry starting in 2006.  She has hatched several chicks over the years but has struggled due to her nest site choices and weather events causing the loss of clutches.  I am pleased to share this new update from the amazing Southeast Michigan team and thank Barb Baldinger for her photo of the new tray and Majesty.

Durant Building, Flint, MI - Today, Chris Becher and I observed Majesty (black 7/5) incubating 4 eggs on the new nest tray that the MNDR installed last June. Majesty and her mate, Barry (not yet confirmed this year) have nested at the Durant Building and across the street at the UM Northbank Center since 2006. Early in 2014, employees of the UM Northbank Center installed a traditional roofed nest box that the falcons did not like. Majesty laid her eggs on the ledge of the Durant Building and they fell to the street below. It’s nice to see the new nest tray is working!
