Marion Nash Reports:
Hi everyone;
Hope you are enjoying this sunny day. I am just here at the viewing parking lot. Pretty quiet around the nest box but one of the birds, maybe Enigma, was sitting on the tower with the drum when I arrived, preening, and then treated me to a little aerial display. Flew in circles, getting higher and higher until out of sight.

May 13, 2020 - Oshawa - Lakeridge Hospital
Marion Nash Reports:
Looks like the chicks are about a week old. due to the pandemic this is the first chance staff have had to check the nest camera image to look for eggs or hatches. We so much appreciate the staff at Lakeridge not only for their falcon support and this report but also for being there on the front line fighting to save lives our thanks go out to everyone at Lakeridge!
As mentioned earlier due to COVID-19 we will not be banding chicks at any of the hospital sites or any site where swing stage access is needed and safe distance can’t be maintained but we are on call to rescue chicks and will be checking on the chicks and conducting fledge watches to the best of our ability.

Marion Nash Reports:
There were 5 eggs laid but one went missing and now 1 hatched for sure.
Good Afternoon,
At 2:27 pm today one egg hatched. She is guarding them closely so I cannot tell if anymore are hatched. I am going for the day and will check on them tomorrow.
Thank you,
TAMMI FRETZ

Marion Nash Reports:
I thought I would send you a quick message. Raptorette and Peenie got off to a late start but they have at least 2 eggs. I believe they were laid about 4/19/20. I have not been back up to check and see if there is more trying to give them some space. Not a bad start for such a young lady. She is molting and getting rid of some of that brown plumage. Hopefully we will know more in a couple of weeks
Looks like a lot of good things happening up in your area.
Take Care,
Jeff

May 06, 2020 - Toronto - Sheraton Centre
Marion Nash Reports:
The female is unbanded and there was no sign of the male when Mark was there. The chicks are about 1 week old and we are planning on banding them on May 19th. It will not be a public banding and will be done in the mechanical room. This is an opportunity for our supporters and our web site followers and FaceBook friends to submit names for the chicks. I will go through all the names and pick ones we have not used yet and those will go into a hat and be drawn. please send names to me at raptor4@peregrine-foundation.ca. Use name the chicks Sheraton in the subject line.
The Camera was checked and we found the power was off. We turned everything back on but no image was captured. We think the internet line is down so when we get a chance to talk to the management we will see if the line was turned off or if we need a tech to have a look.

Cathy Kerr Reports:
I can finally confirm at least 3 hatches for Quest and Mystery!! It was a warm day and Quest was too hot in the nest box, so she hung out on the edge, allowing me to get some pictures of the box. I was quite far away but you can see the little bobbleheads at the back of the nest box. The first picture is of Mystery with the babies, all the rest are of Quest.

Marion Nash Reports:
Etobicoke Condo now has 3 hatchlings and 1 egg to go.
As in the past we are not publishing the address at the request of building management. This being a private residence they do not want to attract bird watchers and photographers.
