Jan Chudy Reports:
Both adults have spent quite a lot of time on the Sheraton ledge and the neighbouring perches since the start of the year. I have also been seeing adults at Mount Sinai, but never all four adults at the same time. Today, at 1 p.m. as I checked the locations, two adults are on the Sheraton nest ledge and two adults are on the south louvres of Mount Sinai!

Both adults spent a great part of the day together either on the nest ledge or around the area. It was heart-warming to see them together. As I write this shortly after noon on Christmas Eve, they are both together again. One in the nest box and one on a nearby ledge.
Merry Christmas, Everyone.

Hi Again
Rhea Mae & Tiago were back on the ledge for quite a while today-close to 2 hours! The nest cam shot is a bit washed out, but you can see them both. I’m not sure who went down to the Osler cam end for a closeup-they’re so good at hiding their bands. It’s nice to see them together!

With many thanks to Eileen and her photos taken, we have adult activity on the ledge.
I see the ledge has been busy again, which is nice to see! I caught a couple of pictures of an adult on the standpipe Monday and today.
Today’s morning pictures show another bird ( I think an adult) on the nest tray & some bowing between the two, so I’m guessing it was Rhea Mae & Tiago. And someone was back roosting on the standpipe this evening.

Scanning the usual locations at 1:15, I spotted and adult on the standpipe and a juvenile on the ledge!! It really seemed to me that I was seeing white tape on the right leg - which would mean Osler. However, I cannot confirm the ID 100%. Both the adult and the juvenile were on the ledge when I checked at 1:40. As I watched, the juvenile took off followed a few minutes later by the adult. Unfortunately, I could not track them! Still, always happy to see a juvenile at the Sheraton.

Trhough the course of the morning, I viewed an adult in various places on the nest ledge. Checking it shortly after 4 p.m. Tiago was on the edge of the ledge (he obligingly showed me his leg band) and I spotted a juvenile on the east side of the Sheraton roof!! It seemed to me I was seeing a dark tape on his right leg, but could not be positive. Very happy to see a juvie still around. He stayed around on the roof for about 30 minutes and then took off when I wasn’t looking.

Good morning!
I caught the attached picture this morning. I can’t tell who it is, but it’s definitely a juvie.
I don’t think it’s Sandy (who was seen there Wednesday)…I’d think her red tape would stand out even in the shadows. She was at the nest end a few minutes earlier, but I didn’t hit save in time. At any rate, it’s good to see the youngsters still around and doing so well.

Checking in at 8:45, I found an adult in the nest box and a large juvenile (!) on the SW corner of the Canada Life building on the ledge under the letters. As I checked again at 9, it appeared that the juvenile “dropped” off the ledge, so off I went to Canada Life to check it out. Many thanks to Gavin Miller for checking all the appropriate ledges - no juvenile found, and no news is good news. Gavin did say he heard a peregrine screeching at around 6:30. As I walked back to the office, I found an adult on the east DBRS logo, on top of the “D”. At 11, I spotted an adult on the standpipe of the Sheraton nest ledge. At 11:55 I spotted a large juvenile on the west side of the elevator housing at 100 Adelaide. I thought I would go down to the street to see if I could see the tape colour but it had gone. However, as I walked around I found a large juvenile on the north side of 120 Adelaide. I carried on to a better vantage point and found two adults on the north logo of the other hotel. At 12:30, the juvenile took off fast going north. A few minutes later a large juvenile had arrived on the SW corner of 85 Richmond - same bird??? The two adults remained on the north logo. A few minutes later the juvenile went off south and landed on a window ledge on the west side of the red brick building which is the back of the Bell building. It was two levels down from the roof. I checked the adults and they were in the same location and when I looked back, the juvenile was gone. At 1:35 checking again from my office, I spotted a juvenile flying around south of the Sheraton. She then went to the SW corner of 130 Adelaide. She obliged by standing tall and I managed to clearly see the tape attached to her leg on banding day - RED - it was Sandy! She then toook off south down York. At 1:45 checking from the west windows, I spotted a large juvenile eating on the east side of the Exchange Tower roof. When she finished eating, she walked to the SE corner and cleaned off her beak! She then took off to the south, landed on the west side of the westerly building of the TD Centre and then off again. From 3:15 to 5:15, both adults were in view on various locations of the Sheraton, either the nest ledge or the letters.

Checking in at 9, I found a juvenile on the Sheraton nest ledge and two juveniles together on the south side of the Sheraton roof. Virtually no further sightings until 4:15 when I spotted a juvenile flying around the south side of the Sheraton and one sitting on the “C” of centre. It was joined by the other juvenile shortly thereafter and both stayed together on the “C” until I left at 5:05. At this time, I spotted a third juvenile on the SW corner of 100 Adelaide.
