The Taughannock gorge Peregrines should see their eggs hatching soon. She has been lying on her nest ledge since March 14th. She has four brown eggs beneath her. He has been making food deliveries… twice while I watched today. Those are very excited, talkative events, though I guess all the

I’d guess the chicks are going on two weeks old, so four more weeks to go on the ledge…? Mom is on her favorite perch about twenty feet away, waiting for a food delivery. Oh, here comes dad… -Geo > On May 4, 2023, at 5:41 AM, Dave Nutter wrote: > Yesterday afternoon (3 May) about 5:15pm,

The little Peregrine chicks are fine - their dense down is just the same color as the splattered ledge, so if they’re sleeping in a pile you might miss them. The adults are around too. -Geo > On May 4, 2023, at 5:41 AM, Dave Nutter wrote: > > Yesterday afternoon (3 May) about 5:15pm, Ann

Yesterday afternoon (3 May) about 5:15pm, Ann Mitchell & I stopped on Gorge Rd and scoped across Taughannock gorge, and the Peregrines’ nest ledge appeared empty. Nor did we see or hear adults, although our visit was brief. I have not followed their progress closely, but isn’t this early for

Thank you for the tip—we saw a peregrine falcon just where you described today. It sat on the snag for several minutes, then pooped and flew off. The white on the cliff below seems to indicate that is a favorite spot. Barbara Sadovnic > On Mar 17, 2023, at 9:33 AM, Geo Kloppel wrote: > >

There was deep slush everywhere at my house yesterday, and it was hard work for my elderly dog to struggle through, so I took her for a long leisurely walk at Taughannock Point. There was a Snow Goose at the north point that had an injured wing. It paddled north toward Frontenac, forestalling

I've been at Taughannock a lot the past couple days. The Peregrines have been very active around the park and over the lake. -France Kehas-Dewaghe On Thu, Jun 24, 2021 at 4:49 PM Jgaffne2 wrote: > > Suan > Can the peregrine Erie be seen from the overlook? Is there a trail to > possibly catch a

Suan Can the peregrine Erie be seen from the overlook? Is there a trail to possibly catch a sighting or other recommendations? I’m meeting a friend to look for the peregrines tomorrow. Thanks for any information from the Listserv as well. Jim Gaffney Sent from my iPhone > On Jun 20, 2021,

Two Thursdays ago (June 10) I happened to be up in T'burg, so stopped by to check out the Taughannock Peregrines. I found three nestlings in their eyrie playing with their food and flapping their wings as if ready to fledge. Two days later, on Saturday June 12, I ran across Mark Chao and Miyoku in
