Some wonderful photos of the Beachville falcons taken by Cody Evans.
Thanks for sharing Cody!
Over the last few days Peregrines have been spotted by one of CPF`s volunteers at the Walkers Rd. and Riverside Dr. Area in Windsor. He got a photo and the great news is that one of them is Juno produced at the Ambassador bridge in 2019. Hopefully, the pair is successful and produces offspring this year. We have not been able to confirm where the nest is yet there is still some searching and fieldwork to do. Stay tuned for further updates.
I thought you might like an update for early Spring…
Raptorette (adult female on the right) who was banded in 2019 (Black Z/28) in Toronto at Canada Square spent all winter in Anderson, Indiana after successfully raising two young. The adult male left (on the left banded in May 2012 Canton, Ohio) and has returned for the third year in a row. He feeds Raptorette very well all year long. Hoping for some eggs soon and another successful breeding season.

Hopefully se will be successful in mating this year.
The First of 2 eggs were laid on March 25th. Thanks to the web cam watchers for keeping an eye on the nest.
4 Eggs now
I have been stopping by almost every day, so the pictures are from different days. But I am starting with this afternoon’s pics as I observed an exchange!! Dad was in the nest box when I arrived. He came out after 10 minutes or so (its a warm day here), then preened. Quest came in after 15 minutes or so, they echupped (just love hearing them!!) and dad flew off. Quest then headed into the nest box, looked like she rolled a bit then settled in the nest box. Let’s hope for successful hatches in just over a month from now
Seen these at Beachville Monday March 15, 2021 4pm. Spotted the one in the tree, then the second busted into my viewfinder. They may have had a little spat even. So precious to see again.

I have been checking in on our lovely couple over the winter here and there, plus have had reports of sighting from our friend Carolyn. I stopped by yesterday to find Quest on the nest ledge, looking warm(she even went into the only shady corner for abit). She then flew off and Dad flew in! He went into the nest box and looked like he was settling in(over eggs maybe??!!). He didn’t sit long(it was a very warm afternoon) and sat outside the box for the rest of the time I was there. Do we have an egg(s)?? Only time will tell…..
I have been watching Jenna & Chester over the winter and they are doing great! And for the past 10 days I have seen mating happening!! Exciting! When I stopped by yesterday I even got a few pics lol. Lets hope for eggs soon
