Three in Sight in Etobicoke

Tracy Simpson Reports:
Last night was my final night on the Etobicoke watch as I switch gears to Yonge and Eglinton to help Haven and Stormin’s kids the best I can. When I arrived, I had Regatta on the corner of the condo and was able to confirm that it is her by the tape colour; blue. Another chick was on a ledge of the nest building facing Bloor St and after a bit of walking about, I found a third on a ledge of the nest building on the Aberfoyle side. I can’t confirm the identity of these two as they were sitting back into the ledge and their legs were not visible. As I left the watch for the night, three were definately in sight and O’Connor was there as well. She made efforts to get the chick on the Aberfoyle side to move but it refused to budge and instead laid down for the night on that ledge. Frank, with help from Kathy, Baylie and Rob when they are available ( these folks are amazing and we are so grateful for them ), will continue to remain on site until Olympia, the last to fledge ( first flight yesterday ) gets herself organized and makes it back to the nest ledge.
