Fledge Watch Monday 6/30 6-9pm
June 30th, 2008

We arrived shortly before 6pm and met up with Kapi at Falcon Watch HQ. Talked to Joyce on the bridge. Not much action for a while. No falcons to be seen. Joni pointed out the nest box to some interested passerbys.

Jon walked to bridge and saw 2 Great Blue Herons, but no Falcons.

At 7:30 Joyce and KC arrived. She reported seeing Kaver by the southwest corner of the Xerox Tower. No other falcons still.

7:45 out to the bridge with Kapi and Joyce. Spotted 2 juvies coming north from downtown playing tag. They came in around Bru building and Zephyres antenas, landing there. A third juvie must have been hiding out there, popped up and they continued to play more tag. Then they flew over by the antenna on Kodak Building 9. It appeared they may have had a stash and may have been eating.

Kapi and Joyce joined us at the corner of State and Platt. By 8:15 3 juvies on ledge of kodak office. SusanB on 17th floor SE corner. Zephyre on 19th floor SE corner. Another Juvie on 19th Floor by dolphins, tucked in close, couldnt see bands. A fourth Juvie flew in at 8:25 landing on kodak building NE of tower(i think building 19) Short time later that juvie flew around Tower and onto 17 floor east ledge just feet from SusanB.
