A Quick Check on Mason. He’s a Big Boy Now!

Tracy Simpson Reports:
I received a fantastic update from Margaret and Katherine on Mason the other day that I wanted to share with everyone! He’s doing great and has moved on to his next phase of training. Margaret and Katherine were out on Thursday of last week and these are their observations.
So yesterday I met up with Katherine to do a site check. When I arrived I didn’t see anyone including Katherine so started doing perimeter check of MEC 3 where I did fine Kate. She said she had seen a peregrine on the J of Desjardins on the west side. Turned out to be Rogue. We decided to position ourselves at MEC2 to keep an eye on Rogue and the nest side of MEC1.
After a few minutes with nothing going on Katherine decided to do a check around MEC2. On her way back a peregrine flew across from Square 1 squawking away. Turned out to be Renegade with a food parcel which he stashed on the S of Symcor. He then made his way over to the nest ledge. All was quiet with no sign of Mason. After a while I decided to stretch my legs and do a walkabout and it was then that I spotted something across Hurontario on the Morguard building. I whipped up my binocs and sure enough it was a peregrine chowing down on some scrap of food. I think maybe Renegade dropped something off for him before stashing the rest at MEC1.
Although looking small I’m sure Mason was very proud of himself to be such a big man to go to the Square 1 side, have his own letter (the u in Morguard) on his own building all by himself!
We changed our position to the back of the parking lot at MEC2 and sat waiting for some action out of Mason but instead of honing his flying skills, he decided to practice his napping skills. After about 2 hours we called it quits but we were very happy to see Mason and to know that he is doing well.
Thank you so much to Margaret and Katherine for checking in on our little man and making sure that he is progressing forward. Great news!
