Bloor/Islington fledge watch - Tuesday, July 4 - ANDRE makes it back to the nest ledge

July 06, 2023 - Etobicoke - Sun Life Centre

Marion Nash Reports:

Bruce watched ANDRE show great flying skills today .. he joined his parents as they kited over the nest building. He also flew north and perched on the condos along Islington. He’s definitely gained confidence. After circling and landing on the condo next to the nest building, he aimed for and made it back to the nest ledge .. where he remained for the rest of the day.
A couple of maintenance guys were on a swing stage working on the adjacent condo, and it caught everyone’s attention. We weren’t sure if the parents would approve or disapprove, but they didn’t look to be bothered by this at all!
ANGEL (green) and CASEY (yellow) were a bit energized and wing flapping, so we wondered if there would be another fledge tonight. Nope. ANDRE showed no interest in leaving and spent the night with his siblings.
Cheers, Lucie
