Bruce Massey Reports:

MEC Fledge Watch-Day 3.

June 5/2016

5:30 AM.: Arrived at MEC,  found one bird in the position Winston  last saw it.   The rain has ended  but still a little bit misty.

5:55 AM.: Adults in to nest ledge vocalizing.  This woke the kids up and pretty soon they were quite noisy.

6:05 AM.:  One of the adults ( I think the male) took out a starting over the parking lot and took it up to feed them.

7 :00 AM.- There’s been no flights by the juveniles in the last hour. However, they have been flopping around and currently one is out of sight around the corner.

8 :00 AM.- Juveniles split up on the northwest corner and decided to lay down.  Have only seen one since then. And then around 8:30, I saw a bird coming from the west. What got my interest is that as he soared and turned he sort of did  a wing flutter typically something the juveniles do. Anyway I did, I walk about but couldn’t find him.

10:00 AM: Finally both Juveniles popped up on the corner.  Adult Male also seen at same time.

5 :00PM- Finally, a flight by a juvenile, that had Josally doing a “Bat” On the wall about 2 feet above the Nest Tray. He let go and landed at the nest tray. Olimar is still on 3 Robert Speck Parkway.

It was a pretty uneventful late morning through to early afternoon.  Around 2 o’clock are so, Margaret came and gave me a second set of eyes  until around 4 o’clock.  An hour so before she left we had a series of thunder storms and strong winds.

5:00 PM- Finally. a juvenile flies.  I didn’t see it leave the building, but I caught it circling around and doing the bat maneuver just above the Nest Ledge height.  He then let go and flew on to the ledge.  When I scoped this juvenile it turned out to be the blue tape Josally that flew

6:00 PM:  Winston  showed up to relieve me, and  I updated him him and headed home for something to eat and go to bed.
