June 21st Day 2 Fledge Watch Petra Group/Yellow Pages
June 22, 2023 - Scarborough - Yellow Pages
Marion Nash Reports:
Bruce and I to find Yorgos and Linn exactly where Mark left them last night Yorgos on the 2nd floor ledge above the shipping door and Linn on the lamp post watching him. We could see a leftovers food package sitting beside Yorgos and he had a full crop so she had fed him before we got there. And was comfortable sitting in the morning sun. Linn was preening and watching him and now watching us as well until a Red Wing Black Bird decided to stoop her. The Red Wing continued to pester her for over an hour before she finally decided she had enough of that and flew to a higher ledge on the building above Yorgos to watch her fledgling. Yorgos ran the ledge and did a lot of flapping for most of the morning and practiced hopping up on an air vent dozens of tines it was quite a game for him some times slipping off and trying again he played killing his leftover food for a wile and when he got board with that he threw it off the ledge to the ground and walked back over to the corner above the shipping door and settled down in a small shady spot and Linn flew off on a hunt. Later in the afternoon Yorgos decided to take flight and flew out over the parking lot gained height then flew west toward the building across the street losing some height and out of our sight. Bruce went after him looking all over the ground and lower ledges of the buildings and the roofs of the town homes on Millner. I joined him on the search and we finally found him on the forth floor window ledge of the building we call the Kitchen where Linn likes to prep food across from Yellow Pages. The ledge is slanted but had a ruff coating so I knew he would not slip off but it did take him a while to settle down and get his footing. He walked back and forth the ledge for a while before he decided to have a nap and there we sat watching him until Mark joined us for the evening watch. By sunset he was still sitting there comfortable and quite and Linn flew to a corner of the nest building where she could keep and eye on him and when it got dark we packed up to head home. Hopefully the takes another flight and gains height tomorrow.
