Unbanded female
January 7, 2023
About 10.30 am I saw a falcon perched and preening
1.30 pm she is still there, goes inside, picks at pebbles
-
January 10, 2023
There is a workman up there on the roof - no idea what he's doing - NOT near box.
The falcon is way wayyyyyyy up top - I bet its scolding! Wish this had sound.

Feb. 4, 2023
Early afternoon Flash arrived - vocalized - went in box - left
-
Feb. 54, 2023 SONday
Flash was there mid-morning, sitting calmly.
He has matured. I love him.
-
Feb. 6, 2023
Flash in the morning.
Sometimes I see him, other times her.
-
Feb 8, 2023
I see them most days - but NOT at the same time -
EXCEPT - one day Flash flew inside, and I saw her fly by -
then perch WAYyyyyyy down at the end of the roof. :biggrin:
Nesting is on their mind, but she isnt 'in season' quite yet.
-
Feb 10, 2023
7 am Flash arrives vocalizing - I think he has dressed prey in his talon? not sure...
Hey Flash darlin - too early for eggs!
He's even more beautiful in the dawn light. :-*
9 am - I think thats the female - she has been sitting on the green facing outside for 45 minutes now. Sure appears nesting season is near.
11.30 took another pic
1 pm another pic
Do we have another male? or no?

Feb 11, 2023
7 am Flash arrives and Lady followed
Flash went inside box, Lady perched on green facing him, then moved to perch - then flew off.
She is not banded.
So today they were BOTH there at the same time. Progress. ;D
NOTE from bcaw
Illinois Raptor Center posted on BCAW Facebook that they have a new patient, a Racine fledgling from 2022! Her name is Betty, and her band is black over Blue R 62 .
-
LOL! Grab n Run!
Feb 13, 2023
7 am Flash flew into box with prey,
she flew in hot on his tail - grabbed prey and left.
He peeks out as if wondering what happened. 8)
Unfortunately the cam hides half the box so I have to use my imagination.

:D Grab n Run AGAIN!
Feb 14, 2023
7 am Flash flew into box with prey,
she flew kind of an odd circle, landed, ducked into box, grabbed prey and left.
He peeks out as if wondering what happened. 8)
ALMOST exactly the same routine as yesterday. Flash still had a wing feather stuck on his talon. I am NOT sure this is a female from previous years. The behaviors are different.

FLASH
Feb 15, 2023
GOOD! They finally changed the cam angle so we see the whole box.
4 pm
Blue banded femaile falcon is back and she's NOT happy!
Flash tried and tried to get her inside box - suddenly she's there - angry
(https://media.gab.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=875,quality=100,fit=scale-down/system/media_attachments/files/127/457/570/original/f2c8ae074e808322.png)

P12 FIGHT
Feb 16, 2023 snow, 30 degrees
6 am Yesterday's female came, perched, apparantly guarding from - likely another female offcam -
went inside - left
I think its the banded one. Flash has courted 2 females for several years ( at least 2 )
6.45 am THE 2 GIRLS ARE FIGHTING!
Is P12 a juvie?
7 am Lady musta run off the juvie P12
Both she and Flash did a 2 second bow dance inside box, then she left
Blue band P 12 - black over blue

Flash tries to get her inside with him daily.
No DVR here so if he succeeds I miss it
-
March 8, 2023
4.30 am She is perched on bar outside the green - looks like she spent the night. Yesterday before dawn she was there perched on the green. She stayed around a long time. Flash came n went - as alway - lol

March 9

March 18, 2023
She's around early
one or the other is there most of the time
Unusual for Flash to be at the box longer than 3 seconds .. hahaha
He's just adorable.

? EGG 1 ?
March 23, 2023
6.40 am She is in the box and appears to be laying an egg.
Flash flies in but remains on green, does not go inside.
After a bit he went in very carefully.
Its TIME for an egg. We cant see inside so we dont know til a week after chicks hatch.
-
March 25, 2023 snow
I am reasonably sure there's an egg.
6.30 am Flash arrived, looked down inside awhile, went inside. He may be keeping egg warm and/or turning it. He is a great Dad.
-
2 eggs
March 29, 2023
She usually lays 4 eggs - she was inside all night last night - so she has eggs.
NOT full incubation yet - so likely 2 eggs.
6.30 am Flash is there inside with prey
-
3 eggs
March 30, 2023
2 pm I think she just laid egg 3
-
April 15, 2023
Flash arrived before dawn today for his turn on their eggs.
He is such a good Daddy! He usually has 4 eggs, but since there is no cam inside the box we never know til the chicks hatch. Sometimes his mate is banded, sometimes its this girl.
-
3 eggs ? or more?
April 21, 2023
She is scooting around as if hatch is near

HATCH?
April 27, 2023
7 am Flash was on the eggs, when he suddenly looked down, looked around, looked confused and flew out and away. After a short while Nellie came and looked surprised he was gone. I figured he'd gone for prey - and sure nuff. He showed up with nicely dressed prey. I love this male!
He left with the prey, for whatever reason - but I figure either a hatch or close.
(https://media.gab.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=577.5,quality=100,fit=scale-down/system/media_attachments/files/136/370/767/original/bd077d275a59a457.png)

ALONE
April 28, 2023
2.30 pm The eggs / baby(s) were left ALONE at least 15 minutes.
I've checked often and when I checked at 2 no one was home.
It was 2.15 before Flash arrived.
3.30 pm Flash is so tender with the brood.
4 pm No sign of Nellie
Last year someone opened the door of the box and scared her away a long time. DUMB.
-
April 29, 2023
At dawn Flash is still inside the box.
7.30 am Nellie showed up with prey.
But she left again - with prey.
Flash remains baby sitting
(https://media.gab.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=622.5,quality=100,fit=scale-down/system/media_attachments/files/136/543/973/original/64f493797e1e377b.png)

MAYBE HATCH - or almost
April 30, 2023 SITUATION: ODD
Flash was inside, female arrives with small dressed prey.
Flash leaves. Then female leaves - with prey.
No one inside about 2 minutes - and its COLD.
They must have a stash nearby.
Maybe feeding later today - we'll see.
My only guess - and its only a guess - is - someone looked inside the box Apr 28 and female left so suddenly she scattered the eggs. Flash arrived and pulled the eggs together. I saw him rooting around in the end near cam.
-
SITUATION: STILL ODD
May 3, 2023
8.30 am Nellie was down in incubation mode.
Suddenly she raised up her head, looked around, nervous ( scared ? ) -
I had to leave my computer a few minutes, when I returned she was gone.
O here's Flash, he just arrived.
Flash has had a banded mate in the past. Hope he doesnt choose this female in 2024.
-
WORKERS on ROOF
May 4, 2023
Nellie was inside looking VERY nervous.
8.30 am She left and I saw men in blue helmets messing around near her box.
9 She returns to the perch - sits out there watching ... goes inside but still nervous.
She left again almost right away
( I had an appt - was gone )
11.15 am No falcon and 2 men up on roof
NOON she returns.
This is a LOT of time off eggs at this point!
NOON she returns.
This is a LOT of time off eggs at this point!
-
May 6
I am NOT seeing any chick feeding.
I am unsure why not.
I see unusual behavior by female - nervous Nellie - and between the 2 adults.
I wonder if this the female's first brood.
Maybe its NOT a mate from a previous year.
Flash is such a dear. I just love him.
-
PREY
May 7, 2023 SONday
4.30 am Prey is delivered to the box - presumably by Flash but too dark to tell
5.30 am Flash comes with more prey, she leaves.
Flash appears to be feeding his young
1.30 pm Nervous Nellie is inside - looking up, down, around - I dunno was goin on.
Flash watchs from the high perch atop the rigging on the roof.
Nellie watchs from up there too sometimes
2 pm Nellie looks like she's feeding chick - Flash brot prey
-

March 19, 2024
Flash's mate is an unbanded female.
She appears to be new.
She exploring the box and appears very suspicious of that light up top.
The nestbox roof seriously needs repair.
Its about egg time . .

FOOD GIFT
March 20, 2024
Flash gifted Slash and she's eating it on the ledge of the nestbox -

March 22, 2024 SNOW!
There is snow inside the box.
We wont know til a week after hatching, but here's a guess.
EGG 1 Mar 20
-
2 EGGS ??
March 23, 2024
Slash doesnt wanna lay her egg in a box FULL OF SNOW!
She does NOT trust that light up top of box.
6.45 am she finally went inside box.
Judging ONLY by her action - it appeared she rolled egg then laid down on it to warm it.
6.53 am LOL - lil psycho is back in there again.
7 am She flies off with a large food gift.
8 am She's inside - maybe laying egg 2
if egg 1 was March 20, then it'd be time for egg 2
10 am She is inside - and may be laying egg.
Flash was in there earlier.
He's a great Dad.
-
March 24, 2024
3 am Mom Slash is perched on green, tucked and zzz.
There is no doubt there is at least one egg in there.
NOTE
A 2023 juvie with a white eyebrow showed up at GSB March 24.
Unusual marking.

April 20, 2024
Faithful Flash comes around 5 am or so to give Lady a break.
-
April 24, 2024
I saw both inside, one left, female appeared to be feeding a hatched chick.
Saw her carry the bloody remains away.
-
HATCH?
April 27, 2024
I saw both, one left with the bloody remains of prey.
I didnt see feeding.
-
HATCH
May 2, 2024
We have at least one hatch - she's feeding it
-
3 HATCHLINGS
May 6
I can see 3 chick heads.
Flash just came and the Lady left.
That female's neck's gonna lock like that!
She does not trust the box.
I bet she wont return next year

The one on our right almost fell off.
At least one may be down running along curb SOON.
2 of the bands are 46 and 47.
46 is most adventurous.

Woke today and only one left.
Yesterday 2 were at the box perch -

So #2 left at some point - hope I see them again.
