The cam is ending tomorrow, August 3rd. Boo hoo! It continued longer than expected. Here's Donna's latest blog post.


Best of luck to you, Durand and Aries. I surely will miss watching you both! :15heartbeat:

I pray that this pair stays in this territory and uses the box at the Riffe Tower. I am so nervous for them. Leaving this territory would create skirmishes with other pairs. I would hate for any harm to come to them or anyone else. I really do hope we see them again.
:girlsad3:

It will probably be a while before we have cam access at the Riffe Tower. Sigh!

Oh man...I think they just turned off the cams!! I was hoping they would wait until the end of the day..

My last pic!! :girlsad3: They didn't even stop by to say goodbye!!


Image

Stay safe you two!!! :15heartbeat: Gosh..what will I do with myself with no Columbus cam to watch... :sigh

....I think I'm a tad emotional right now...


:thanku to The Ohio Channel for streaming this cam.... and Ohio DNR and the Rhodes Tower for their continual support and dedication to our beloved Columbus PeFas!! Here's hoping that when the time comes, Durand and Aries will be able to relocate and accept their new home and that we'll be able to watch them in the future!!

Thanks Donna for always keeping us up to date and for tirelessly advocating for all the falcons that have called the Rhodes their home!!

:sosad2 Oh dear....it's really gone....sigh! I've had an empty feeling in my stomach ever since Donna's post. My 1st cam. I'm so crushed, I could cry. I don't know why it's so painful. It's not like we can control or change what these birds do. I suppose seeing Durand and Aries assures us that they are OK. Knowing how attached they are to this nest box makes it harder. I feel so bad for them....especially Durand....her 1st and only home for so many years.

Ditto to the sentiments and special thanks expressed here by SGB and others. Thank you Donna for your devotion to these birds and their fans. I think I speak for all of us when I say that we are on pins and needles about how these two will fare once the box is removed. We'll be waiting to hear the latest.

I'm so thankful that this site stole my heart. Thank you Donna and thank you Mary Anne for your steady presence and for all of the knowledge you have shared.
I'm sad but wishing a good life for our Durand and Aires.
I hope we can get updates somehow......
