CURRENTLY THE NEST AT 101 HUDSON ST. IS INACTIVE. TO SAVE FUNDS WE HAVE DEACTIVATED THE CAMERA STREAM AND SOUND. WE WILL BEGIN TO STREAM VIDEO AGAIN IN FEBRUARY 2015. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO CONTRIBUTED TO THE LAUNCH OF THE NEW FALCON CAM!!

Hey all, The camera system was re-activated last Wednesday. When I arrived I noticed an abundance of pigeons at the base of the building and thought, what the heck is going on here!! That day and since then, no birds have been seen at the site... We're not sure what's going on at the moment, but with a (suspected) 20 yr old female, she could have been lost this winter. Who knows where 2/6 is. We'll have to see what plays out over the next couple weeks.

Well, I've been trying to keep an eye on the cam...and while I'm really enjoying the beauty of the river and the city, I don't think I'm gonna see a falcon...LOL..maybe it could be moved back to the box?

There are two views, so even if the PTZ is pointed at the city, a bird will show up on the pinhole.

I got a report that one falcon has been seen perched on the 37th floor, so at least one is around...

That old girl has lived longer than most, if she has finally retired hopefully a new female finds the nest box. The area is certainly flush with falcons. Good luck team JC!

Good luck team JC!

Nestbox News

March 12

On the 9th, we got an email from Ginger, who works on the 37th floor of 101 Hudson St. and she s
aid that one falcon landed on their balcony! So, we have hope that the pair will soon be seen in and around the nestbox!

Finally falcons in view!

And there's a new bird in town, 41/AX, silver federal band so not a NJ bird

I sent the code + pics to the BBL, but in the meantime does anyone know which sex has been getting AX? NJ was still using AM for males and AN for females the past few years.

Great catch Mike!
Maybe MA or Barb - they might have some info...

fishawk · **Posted:** Tue Mar 17, 2015 12:21 pm

Sweet!! Most likely a NY bird. I'll email Chris with NY DEP and will let you know if it's an NYC bird.
