All 3 on the porch today

June 21, 2016 - Toronto - Canada Square Building - Yonge and Eglinton

Marion Nash Reports:

Tracy started the watch this morning and as soon as Haven brought in food to the chicks on the porch Louise decided to join her sisters determined not to miss breakfast. Symphony has been flapping a lot and spending time very close to the ledge so I expect she may be the first to go.

The chicks were fed at least 3 times today so they sure have the energy to be ready for that first flight.

Although the girls are getting more active on the ledge they are still quite happy to have a nice nap in the afternoons so it makes for a rather boring couple hours for the watchers but this time we had a little excitement and Mark, Tracy, Bruce and I got to watch Haven and Malik go after a Turkey Vulture who made the mistake of cruising into their air space and got it proverbial but kicked and then escorted out of their territory. Mom and Dad 1 Turkey Vulture 0 ;)

At 9:00 PM Haven dropped onto the porch and fed the chicks and perched on the column above to put them to bed for the night so Mark and I packed it up to resume tomorrow.
