I assume that's him on the stick right now. Looks too small for Niecey. And for all we know this guy may have lost his mate from elsewhere and is taking it out on Niecey.

Spent about three hours downtown today. Saw no falcons at first, but then one landed on the corner of 333 Market. It turned out to be Niecey. I spent most of my time on the roof of the Chestnut Street Garage. Niecey finally took off from 333, and was being closely followed by another falcon. They circled above the train station a bit. Niecey landed on the far right corner of the Carson Building roof, and this male was right beneath her on top of the glass cubbie above the nest ledge. They were bowing to each other and probably chattering, but I couldn't hear anything from where I was. I saw him sit on the shield and go into the scrape. They also circled above my head several times, and eventually returned to the Carson Building at the same spots. I saw only two falcons the entire time. This new male sat on the point for a LONG time, and Niecey flew off toward Reservoir Park. She did not return while I was down there, but the male flew to the corner of 333 Market where he was when I left around 1:25. Due to the sporadic appearances from Little Dad, I kind of suspect this other male has been around for a while, and has finally gotten bold enough to come to the ledge. Am hoping and praying Little Dad will be able to reclaim his ledge, and dread the thought of a territorial fight between him and this much younger male. :-(


Thanks for your report, Jane...I know this doesn't help, but I feel your pain. Spark has been missing from the Columbus nest since October. I am still praying that he will return. Ironically, the new male is the grandson of Scout and Orville (my all time favorite Columbus pair), so that helps a little, but not much...

Still praying that Lil Dad is just waiting for the right moment to make his move...

Is anyone looking around the base of the building for an injured lil dad? In many of the pictures posted, the new male is looking down along the side(s) and down below the ledge.
Maybe he is just looking for where she is at, but he is watching something.

When I was down there yesterday I walked down Aberdeen along the one side of the building. I did not see anything out of the ordinary. I was not behind the building or on the 4th Street side. Also was not up on the roof of the 5th Street Garage next to the nest ledge.

Wonder if he snatched some of Niecey's meal? He was on the point bit ago finishing something off. Wiped his beak off on the point afterwards, and is not there now.

I THINK HE WAS TRYING TO GET HER TO THE LEDGE. HE WAS OVER ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COLUMN WITH THAT FOOD, BUT NOT EATING. THEN HE FLEW OFF OVER TOWARDS THE UNIVERSITY LIKE MAYBE TO TEASE HER WITH IT AND THEN HE FLEW BACK TO THE LEDGE WITH IT AND THEN LEFT IT THERE AND WENT TO THE STICK.

I CHECKED ALOT OF ROOFS FROM UP HERE ON MY FLOOR, NO SIGHT OF ANYTHING......WHEN HE SITS ON THE POINT AND LOOKS OVER TOWARDS THE 5TH STREET GARAGE, HE COULD BE WATCHING ALL THOSE PIGEONS OVER BY THE STATE STREET BRIDGE, THEY ARE ALWAYS FLYING AROUND OVER THERE.

Yes, the State Street Bridge is Pigeon Heaven. I'm trying to figure out what that is lying on the ledge over toward the column. i think somebody is over on the corner of the U roof. And I'm going to be away from the computer in about ten minutes and will be gone for a couple hours.
