In case anyone is curious what he/she is missing in our wait to glimpse the mysterious chick(s), we sit around watching the adult birds sit around. Then, every...
Another nice series of photos! I surely am enjoying this group. I just love to see and hear about raptors from other parts of the country. We have an osprey...

I know nest failures often happen, but this year has been a particularly memorable one for me; Pale Male and Lola's nest failed, Pale Male Jr. and Charlotte's...
Does anyone know what is "normal" for numbers of nest failures among birds in general and, more specifically, raptors? All I know is from what I've seen over...
Cleve, you just have to stop being so wordy! What Cleve isn't telling you is that he was there for what was likely the first appearance of this chick. He got a...
Nice going, Cleve. Isn't it amazing....we gnash our teeth at waiting in a line or in our cars, but we will gladly spend hours if necessary to get a short...
Congratulations, Judy. You've successfully waited for Godot. I watched for chicks at Edna Rocks from 12 to 2 PM with Cheryl Lish and Gary who has been...
Thanks, Maggie. You'll have to come out and see the little one(s) soon. (And catch up on what's being said about you out there. "A delight" is the phrase that...
By rquest, I have added a few shots taken yesterday afternoon. Conditions were not the best - - overcast with thin fog, but I added a bit of glass to my setup...
I have posted a few more photos taken yesterday. Conditions were far from optimal (including my own), but the images do illustrate how much the youngster has...
I found two copies of it in a folder marked as yours and one copy in the caracara folder. Gotta love Yahoo. It's straightened up now. Nice shot. When were you...
Bravissimo! Thanks for recording what I see momentarily....Maggie Smith ... From: "ccnash3" <cleve.nash@...> To: <Raptor_Watch@yahoogroups.com> Sent:...
Thanks to both Mike and Cleve for sharing the photos with us. Terrific! Can you believe how fast he is changing? Of course, not being able to see him for days...
You're most welcome, Maggie. Thank you for letting all those kiddies look through your scope. If we don't share with the young the magic of wild creatures and...
Cleve wrote "On the theory that there is no such thing as too many baby pictures, I offer these in addition to Mike's." It is no longer a theory but PROVEN:...
It was an action-filled morning, though much of it was obscured by intermittant fog. The youngster was flapping his wings and yelling a lot. The parents...
That's a new one on me, but then I'm a human and don't have the peregrine's brain...and isn't it fascinating? There has got to be some kind of lesson...
Our little falcon has decided to take to the air a couple of weeks before his scheduled launch date. Perhaps it is his independence celebration, though I...
It was great to read Judy's post about the little one fledging! We are down from the SF Bay Area and spent quite a while out at the rock on 7/3 and 7/4. 7/4...
Hi Mary, Good to hear you are still around. Tomorrow you can see our little guy doing his best to perplex all of us. Cleve got some shots of him this morning...
Ordinarily, I wouldn't post images this crummy. But it doesn't do to defy Judy. She knows birds in high places. Anyhow, I was expecting a flying chick and...
