Falco rusticolus
22 August - cont -
hovered over her and me for several seconds
and then flew to a nearby hillcock to sit.
It came back over us several times - quite
bold and showing no fear. She was
obviously attracted by the actions of my
sleean and possibly also by the swinging
flues. She finally flew off and perched
about a greater mile away. Later while
my eyes was tithered to her perch in
front of the Jamesvery, the gyv stooped
over her once very close. She came in for
a second stoop and I shot at her but
missed. She then flew off and perched
on a mooraine across the lake.
September Meade River Coalmine - a juvenile
male was seen at 10 45 flying around
the air strip and over the millogs. It
was accompanied by a milling flock
of about 80 red polls which kept cycling
depart above the falcon. Whenever he
tried to rise above them the immediate
flitted up higher. I be kept on dawn
river and out of right. I be came within
20 yds of the warri gan over - close enough
to me the gray colored flat and cue.
September
Meade R. - just 77 seen again at 1045 around
ARL warri gan - red polls again flocking around him.
