Dennis has been watching Jules in the West Winnipeg territory, she's still by herself but very attached to the location so hopefully her mate will be back soon and she can hopefully be more successful this year.

Just a note on this location, we are going to install a second nestbox on a building in this territory in the hopes that this pair will move from the spot they tried last year.  Don't have any schedule on that but we will keep you in the loop.  However, we will not be providing location information unless they move to the new location ... so keep your fingers crossed!

Well, this is exciting also.  I hope that means Alberta falcons are on their way.

Went for a little drive today, and there she was, sitting very prettily on one of her favourite spots. Got some pictures, but they need some cropping, and Dennis' shots are way better than mine.
Check the Radisson thread for what else I saw ;D ;D

Well, this is a good thing in my opinion.

Jules has come back to her territory....this is awesome!  Now, we wait for Ivy as this is also his territory to share with his mate. 

And so we sit and we wait......is he back yet?   ::)

Dennis has been scrutinizing his photos from today and yes, it is Jules who's home first!

Dennis always has an uncontrollable twitch in his shutter finger.

HAHA, good one bcbird....I'm guessing TPC's fingernails are just a tappin' away or all chewed up.

Now, I wonder how Dennis' shutter fingers are doing?  Is it an uncontrollable twitch there Dennis?   ;)

How are your fingernails doing, Tracy?

Shorter than they were a month ago but longer than they will be in a month  ;D
