Etobicoke - William Osler

WILLIAM OSLER/ ETOBICOKE GENERAL UPDATE :

It’s that time! On Thursday afternoon, I got an email while at work. They had a fledgling down! It was in a corner, no real way out. Thanks to Mala for letting me know and staying with her. I said I was on my way. But I remembered that Lucie was going to MEC, which was out that way. And got a hold of her as she was on her way. Of course she could rescue Rio(red-girl). Into a carrier she went, then into a nice cool, quiet room for a rest.

Lucie was off to MEC. I went over after work.  Now, I waited until rush hour was mainly over, but it still took me over an hour to get there. Lucie was busy at MEC so she couldn’t join me. I checked her out, she looked good and Romeo (maintenance) took me up to release her on the roof.

I was at my car when I saw Dad fly in with food, landing on a H sign. Up popped Rio, who walked over to above dad and started screaming. Dad ignored her and ate! She was not happy, back and forth she went. Now I don’t know if she did this on purpose, but she flew /floated down and onto that sign!! Amazing. And she grabbed that food from dad and had a good feed. And there she stayed for the night. It was dark by now, so I left. I saw both parents by the nest but as it was dark, saw noone else. Lucie had seen 2 earlier.

Hope they are all doing well, no news is good news I say. We’ll try to get by to check on them.

I’ve included a few pictures but it was getting dark, so not the best but it gives you an idea.
