CTV Kitchener Falcon Watch: April 10, 2022 | CTV News
Earlier, Kellie reported: “At 11:05, myself, my Mom, Annarita and her husband, Fred went to see the Peregrines. On arrival, it was fairly quiet. A few minutes later, we could hear a falcon calling, but could not spot it. Fred finally spotted an adult perched on a corner of the Grand River Hospital. It’s not a perch I’ve seen them use in past years, but perhaps a bit more protected from the wind.
A few Turkey Vultures were getting increasingly closer to the nest tower on their flybys, until one got too close. The adult on the hospital rocketed off their perch and caught up with the TV to escort it out of the area. In flight, it was easier to tell it was the male.
We noticed a few pigeons gathering around the apartment building balconies (King’s Tower) and the chimney of the shorter brown brick building behind the parking area. A few minutes later, the male flew into the nest box and switched off with the female, who looked especially monstrous compared to the male due to fluffiness (it was a cold and windy morning). She shot off of the ‘porch’ of the nestbox and then went barrelling through the flock of 8 pigeons (two pigeons smartly didn’t take flight). We lost the female behind the building after the pigeons scattered.
Overall, quite a lot of action for no babies yet and only a half hour or so of watching!!”
