Two little bobbleheads growing fast!

Cathy Kerr Reports:

UPDATE DON MILLS : I’ve been keeping an eye on our family here and confirmed 2 hatches.  It’s been a strange season here and continues to be so. Quest is allowing Canuck to feed the chicks more… Good thing too as when Sally and I went to check on them today, only Canuck was around. But he did great, hunted,  fed the kids and kept them safe. We came back later to find no Quest still. And no Canuck but he came in shortly with food.  After about an hour or so, another peregrine showed up, very high and circling. Quest? But she didn’t come down and Canuck took off South, with the Pf following. We could see something happening in the far distance but these eyes are not of a peregrine! They disappeared but Canuck came back on Thales, watching south for a while. He returned to top of the old Harlequin building facing south. He circled out and then headed north… We figured on the hunt as it was getting a little late. In no time food was brought… By Quest!! Whew. She was ok. We’ve had an intruder a few times here and also at Don Mills/Amexon… Was this the reason she’s been MIA and Canuck has been getting so much kid time??  Possibly… Sure wish the other Pf would leave the area! Our girl Quest is one tough cookie

Pictures thaks to Sally
