VELCRO HAS A HOME & A MATE!

Cathy Kerr Reports:

LAKERIDGE HOSPITAL NEST:

Sally, Lucie and I decided to head out to the Lakeridge Hospital site to confirm the identity of the nesting pair. We are very excited to confirm that our boy Velcro has been confirmed as the resident male at this site!! And it’s been confirmed that he was here last year as well(thanks to Linda) !! We also confirmed (thank you Sally for that pic!!) that Alfrieda, 73/AW, 2012 hatch out of Buffalo NY is still the resident female (& since 2014!!).  They had 2 chicks last year(Grandkids of our Quest & Mystery) . We have no way, atm, of knowing if Velco was there before that. But he has a wonderful site and a good mate, great news!! And even better, as they have a wonderful camera there, we can follow them.  Here is the link :

Linda also reports that there has been a sub adult intruder. She has a sequence which I include in the pictures at the end.
Thanks to Linda, Scott and Sally for the pictures.

EGGS FOR HOLDEN & NAGATA

March 28, 2024 - Toronto - Don Mills and Eglinton - Amexon

Cathy Kerr Reports:
DON MILLS/AMEXON :  Congrats to Holden and Nagata! It’s 3 eggs, so far!  We’ll find out at hatch time if more, as we won’t be going up to check again until then so as not to upset them. These pictures are from 2 visits, one Sally came with me and today’s when Rob came up. He’ll be sending me his pictures later to share.
These are from Sally and I.
Can’t wait for hatches next month

Update on Don Mills :  Canuck and Bellatrix are down on eggs! I’ve seen both of them in the box since last week. Unfortunately we cannot see in the nest box so we don’t know how many. Hatch watch starts in a little less than a month!!
