Marion Nash Reports:
Piper had a couple flights again today. Bruce saw her take flight and do several great circles around the parking lot gaining lots of altitude however Lyn flew low off to the south east and Piper followed losing her gained altitude. When Lyn flew back to the building Piper followed but now being low she tried hard to gain height again and made to to about the 8th floor where she hit a window hard enough for Bruce to hear the impact. Piper tried to recover but landed on the ground at the front of the building. Bruce headed over to her and slowly approached her hoping to catch her up but again she evaded her rescuer. She flew off and landed on the same lower level as she always does this time on the north west side. She was fed by Lyn at about 8:30 in the morning and stayed there all day. When Mark and I arrived we watched her preen. Stretch her wings and flap so there appears to be no injury to her from the window bump other than possibly her confidante. Cathy joined us to close the night shift and Piper was fed by Lyn again at 7:45 PM and an hour later was down for the night. While Piper was being fed Cathy was able to get a photo of Dad and we can now confirm he is indeed banded although the light was very low, he was to high up on the building and the band numbers are not clear enough to read. We will bring our spotting scope tomorrow and hopefully he gives us a chance to see his band. I have lightened the photos but still can’t read the band but dad sure is a hansom lad. 3rd pic is Lyn.
