MAK's AM report:



As of tonight, UT/Pigott were both seen just before dark at BS and Beauty/DC were both seen DT. DC hasn't been seen by watchers at BS since UT has been with Pigott, which we are finding very interesting. :hall7:


I find that very interesting, too, Kris. I like the idea that they all have their own mate & don't have to share with anybody else, at least for the moment...

Well not really for Miss P. ..the fact she didn't respond to DC and left and didn't return is very telling. She was also quite accepting of UT very quickly. Remember all those times she was gone this year? Perhaps she met him elsewhere and she has decided her best chances at producing offspring is with a more dedicated mate. She's had 2 years of no eggs while DC has had great success with Beauty. Just thinking out loud ..but I think Pigott might be ready to move on...the question is, will DC let her?

I often have wondered if Pigott is still really that into 'DC' especially after their nest site was boarded up this year. To me she seems too submissive to him...and it should be the other way around. Beauty at least goes toe to toe with him and stands up to him. Not a criticism in any way of Pigott but B is the stronger falcon of the two.


What I meant was DC's back to his old ways or did he ever stop? MAK and I were talking last night and she said DC acts real strange around Beauty-more like a juvie interacting with its parent vs a mate. He begs Beauty for food and steals it when he gets a chance-maybe just being opportunistic. There's still no nest box bonding which he did with B last year, at least on a couple occasions before he left. MAK did say today that Pigott acted quite agitated with DC so who knows where her thoughts are-no sign of UT by watchers so did she meet him when she flew off or has he been driven out? Too many questions that we'll probably never have answers for.

In response to quote below:

Chase does the same thing with Radisson at end of season. He is about same age as DC. But he has proven to be a good mate and so this is just their style. Gord says at end of season they do not share food anymore. they work as an individual and I have seen Radisson actually hide food from chase.
We will never totally figure them out and that is O.K. :leafrock:

Looks like a lot has been happening while I was away. Will hope for the best

I hope UT is okay and safe somewhere. She really seemed to like him as per the reports.

Cams are back and we have a new main cam!

Beauty was seen DT this AM by MAK and Pigott was seen by herself at BS this afternoon. Watchers then went DT to check on Beauty and see if they could see DC. Here's the tweets:

WanderingFalcon (Carol P.): DT With Dana and Lou. Close encounter with DC and an RTH!

(grannywood): Close encounter is right!! I had no idea a RTH sat right behind me on a sign, when that falcon came off TS!!!!

(grannywood): I thought the falcon was after me! http://t.co/mpdpHjxpPC

That's short for Hawkeye-is/was a Kodak building near Rochester. It has a nestbox on it but nobody has ever used it as a nest site. Beauty has been seen there a few times and I think maybe Mariah was seen there too. This juvie is Billy, a 2013 hatch from Central Terminal in Buffalo and she's the offspring of Gleig (Pigott's sister) and Diamante (offspring of Mariah and Kaver). She's been hanging around the area north of the city and the Lake Ontario waterfront... was discovered a few weeks ago by watchers.
