The couple do not show up in the nest with the camera. Eve chose a shelf in the building for the nest

Is the “shelf nest” on the same building as the nest with the cam, or is it on another nearby building?

eve may have felt threatened with other female turning up there so much

we saw thi sat one of our sites , years ago. there was too much , not so good traffic around nest box and a fight so our female moved , for a year to another area no t far away. but they did bring youngster to nestbox ledge when it could fly.

I think I just read on their FB page that they may have chosen a different site....an old crows nest? I'll keep checking their FB page.

Indeed the peregrine that used to nest at the University of Montréal have chosen to nest in an old raven nest at the Oratoire Saint-Joseph at 1,2km from the University. Incubation started between April, 19 (no sign of incubation in the morning) and April, 23. In the following article (in French) you will find 2 videos of relays at the nest.

It is not the first year that they are seen in this nest at this period of the year but we never thought they would nest there. We do not know yet any example of nesting of peregrine in such a nest in the Montréal area and more generally we would welcome any example of use of such a nest in an urban area.

Last year there were several disturbances near the nestbox (rescue, banding, firefighter inspection, door that opened alone). And this year there is some working below the nestbox (roughly 12 floors below). Could this be an explanation ? We do not know.

UdeM Falcons / UdeM Falcons

I present to you "Jean" (Masson), son of Eve and Sphinx, a little male who made his first flight today at L'Oratoire Saint-Joseph du Mont-Royal. We named it after Jean Masson, a falcon enthusiast, who contributed greatly to their nesting success in Victoria Square for many years. Jean left us too quickly, too young, but now this falcon will bear his name. Little Jean was unlucky to be among the cars on Surrey Gardens Street early in the afternoon, but we were there to rescue him and luckily he was not injured. We took the opportunity to bring him to Simon Duval to give him jewels on his paws. He was put back on a roof of the Oratory near his nest, where he immediately began to frolic while waiting to try again to conquer the sky, tomorrow ...

Once again, we thank the Union québécoise de réhabilitation des oiseaux de proie-UQROP for such miracles as our Jean, who, thanks to them and your gifts, will get a second chance to live as hawks in the wild. n. n
This morning he was released near his birthplace.
We hope adults Eve and Sphinx will help her finish her studies.
Here is a video of his release.
