I can see Durand and I think he or she is on top of the nest box because she keeps looking up...

Looking at my vid now

I have to leave for a bit but I will be back. I am feeling sorry for Durand; she is so on edge and frustrated it seems. Well for me it seems like that!

OK...the plot thickens...there is alarm calling, but it didn't come from Durand...had to have come from the first falcon..

I can't remember, is the nest cam behind or ahead of the ledge cam..I'm all confused now..

During the departure, Durand is still in the box so, nest cam must be behind...

First falcon leaves..


Image

Strange, LOL

Image

Image

2nd falcon is right behind..

Image

Based on Nest cam, Durand is still in the box..I was using the audio from the box cam...I think Durand left first followed by him? really hard to tell..

Gonna go eat...will try to figure it out later..

:nervous: Good heavens! I step away for 2 h rs and all heck breaks loose. Sky, I though the nest cam was ahead of the ledge cam. Now, I don't know! I wonder if Spark is around. These battles can go on for days. If it's him, I hope he can drive this guy out.

I thought it was ahead too...But must be behind now or there were 3 falcons up there. When Durand left the box, I don't show another falcon leaving the ledge. She really shot out of the box after the alarm call, which didn't come from her.

I'll do 2 separate videos...but, I'm starving...and so is my cat!! LOL

Wow...that bird looks like it dove down from the roof of the building! The roof is pretty close to the ledge.

So we may have 3 falcons here? I hesitated to say that but that is exactly what I thought I saw when all of that action happened. It was like a 1 2 3 thing going on - zip zip zip. Wow!

I am perplexed........

please post yours sgb I just did these up as I had to erase my recordings. too full and did not want to lose anything

part 1.

at about the 5:07 mark , you see a falcon or another bird, go to other ledge. Now I do not know at this time how many on nest box ledge but I think just one.( I edited out real quiet parts or it would have very long, but I made sure I did not miss any comings or goings)



then at 6_09 you see another falcon come onto ledge. I did not see one leave, so we must have 2 there now. and I do not know if this is one that was on other ledge. anybody's guess becasue we are not there. do not know where it went when it came in.

nest box is ahead of ledge . You can tell from one of my next videos.

2 more coming

Based on listening to a quick audio and the excitement between both birds, if there are 3, sounds like Spark might be back.

This is anybody's guess, I think. bird that went to other ledge could have flown off and then came up to nest ledge. Just do not know. They do not have to fly off, in our view LOL the ledge is long.

Thanks Bev. I agree, it's hard to know if the bird that flies to the adjacent ledge is the same bird that later flies to the nest ledge. You never see anyone leave the adjacent ledge. I gather Durand arrived on the nest ledge first. She walks toward the box, but then comes back out on the ledge. A bird flies up to the adjacent ledge. You really don't know if this bird ever leaves that ledge. Durand heads for the box and then you see a bird fly up to the nest ledge, so that there are now two on the nest ledge. Not sure who leaves first, but only two leave the nest ledge and Durand was clearly upset.

Thanks for the vids, Bev!!!... :leafthumbs:

I've got the same footage, so not sure I can add very much video wise.

Because of the poor visibility and the out of sync cams, I'm not even gonna try to figure this one out..

I was pretty sure I had seen 2 birds land. I knew Durand was at the box door, outta view (I could see her subtle shadow in my vids.) I thought the second falcon landed on the nest ledge, but not 100% sure of that. My footage only shows 2 falcons leaving. I think the first falcon leaving was maybe Durand. she really bolted out of that box. Why she (or he) looks so funky in that second pic is beyond me, but the falcon recovered nicely in the third pic I posted. In my 4th pic, falcon looks smaller...maybe because its leaving from the next ledge and/or its definitely male.

Spark often would land on that next ledge...I'm not saying this was Spark...but, many times I would see him land but never see him leave.

Hopefully tomorrow will give us better clues
