Okay, it's a long shot!
Of course they do, and so does Tupper. ;)

This month started out with Jules and Ivy on the Diner first thing this morning as I drove past.  Actually, they buzzed the Bleachers then settled onto their usual corners on the Diner ... just like the old days!

Oh...am I ever happy that you saw the both of them TPC!!!!!   Love hearing about Jules and Ivy.  It's weird though, I feel a little lost as I always watched for them every morning and late afternoon.  Okay, I'm having falcon withdrawals here...
Off topic here...same goes for the Radisson pair!  I also would stop to see them every morning and afternoon, to and from work and some weekends with BccS....more falcon withdrawals!!   :'(

Dennis found another hangout for the WW birds and since I saw Jules there this morning, I think it probably deserves a name, so, lets go with "the Look-out".  So while she was happily looking east from the Look-out, Ivy was tucked up on the Bleachers - almost missed him in fact, he was tucked so close to the wall!

Now I have to figure out what "the Look-out" is.  ???   I think I know the others.   :)

0750 hours (local)

Rockstar Junior was parked at the nestsite this morning - his white breast made him very easy to see as he had decided to look "out" (e.g., out from the building) rather than "in" when all one sees is his grey back and frequently that just gets lost against the back ground.  But not today .... pretty bird, good paternal genes ... but I'm not biased ...

Biased....No, not at all!  ::)
But I know what you mean TPC, Ivy is just like his Dad.  He can tuck himself in so well, just like Trey can but when they want to be seen, they just know where to perch!  Boys (Falcon).......

I spotted one of the west Winnipeg pair this afternoon. Based on Tracy's description of his white breast I will guess that it was Ivy.

A late lunch break found me near the "West-Enders"...seemed like a good place to stop. Time was 4:45-5:30.
Both birds seen...sitting perched, and facing forward at "The B&B"...lots of preening, stretching and tail up in the air..."watch out below" kind of stuff...sorry no camera today ((

Cheers !
