Stupidly busy at work today, so I'm sorry for the lateness of this post
Falcon at the bleechers at 6:30 am today. No yelling and only one.

Around 10:00 this morning,  one sentry on the north west corner of the diner.  Watched for awhile.  After a few minutes somebirdy took off and did a cruise/patrol toward ( relatively low) then up and around the bleachers.  Returned to sentry duty, then repeated all this about 5? minutes later.  I may be off on the wait time between the fly-bys, but it really didn't seem that long.
Checking on something perhaps??

During the worst of the 4:00ish rain, there was one pergrine on the diner.

Always carry spoons and a thermos of coffee in case of such emergencies!
Great idea! ;D

At about 5:30 my husband and I swung by the bleachers to see if the peregrines were there. As we got close one falcon flew overhead and landed on the usual rail next to the other falcon. I finally got to see both Beau and Jules in a way that I could compare sizes.

They were talking to each other for a minute, when Beau then hopped/dropped to the floor of the balcony they were at. Unfortunately since we had ice cream melting in the car we couldn't hang around to watch any further. ???

Have no idea what Beau and Jules were up to today but at about 1530 they were soaring around the Diner and then they disappeared to the west.

The short time I was home last night didn't see them at all... but I saw them both briefly on the building this morning around 6:40am I don't know what that means for incubating? Maybe taking a break... wasn't very long though, looked out the window 2 minutes later and only one was there....
