Sad news for Quest & Canuck

August 13, 2023 - Toronto - Don Mills

Cathy Kerr Reports:

This is always so tough…. It is with great sadness that I have to report that we have lost Lorelei (Don Mills, 29/AB). Thank you to the community that reported a dead peregrine. I headed over immediately and found our girl this morning. She was right beside a glass bus shelter, which was in front of a parking lot full of pigeons. Her neck was broken so at least it was quick.

I am, as always, broken hearted… I’ve watched her since she hatched. She was always the first to eat, was so strong and fiesty, like her Mom. She was a great flier and didn’t take anything from her brother (as some brothers are brats… Hers was not). She loved to play with him.. Rob got some great shots of that which I have included here. I last saw her a week ago Friday. She was amazing to watch… She was buzzing her brother to play. He finally did… They ended up on the top of the tallest building… She ended up flying over to Valkyrie and hovered, yes hovered above him for at least 20-30 seconds, (with him screaming below her lol) until he finally took off with her. Amazing, I had never seen a juvie do that before (parents yes).. She was something. I am grateful she had some time to fly and be a peregrine… And grateful we have all the great pictures from Ted and Rob to remember her by. She was so beautiful. RIP, fly high little one
