Update and photos from Winston

June 13, 2021 - Mississauga - Executive Centre

Marion Nash Reports:

Mississauga MEC -Manuella flying well now

In a couple of days Manuella went from spending her nights in trees and bushes to meeting new friends on a condo tower to finally spending a safe night on the Morguard building.

Last night after Manuella unsuccessfully tried to snatch the kill from mom (last pic), she met up with Midnight on Morguard where Midnight intended to feed her baby; instead, Manuella bullied Midnight out of the kill and pushed her off the building. 45 minutes later, Midnight managed to grab the leftovers and fed herself. Manuella might be one to keep an eye on going forward.

Update on Manuela from Bruce at Mississauga MEC

June 12, 2021 - Mississauga - Executive Centre

Bruce Massey Reports:

She was a little Rocky at first. Fledged Wednesday in AM, didn’t see her at all. Winston got a sense that she was in the Trees @ Robert Speck Parkway & Shipp. Of course you know about Thursday with her being down on ground around 0700 Hrs. I found her having lunch with Midnight around Noon on the Mezzanine Level of CIBC.That Evening she made a couple of Flights, but spent night low somewhere in Vicinity of the Nest Building. On Friday, I found her on the W side of CIBC @ Mezzanine Level. I finally got to see her fly for the first time, and accompanied by Midnight, ended up again on the East Side of the CIBC Building. Around 6:00 PM, she flew up to another level rooftop of the Acenture Building. I was relieved by Winston. She spent the night on the “Twisted Sister’s” 2 1st Floor Balcony.
I found on rooftop level of the Morguard Building 13 floors up. Midnight has made a couple of passes, so she knows where she is.

It’s 2 beautiful and healthy girls for MIDNIGHT and RENEGADE at the Mississauga Executive Centre! Welcome CHRISSY (855g, 22 days, (sideways) L/2, red tape) and MANUELLA ( 885g, 22 days, (sideways) M/2 blue tape). I had the honour of holding these beauties during banding :) These photos should be in order except for the first one, which I captured on the webcam after the banding.
