Leftovers And Being Ready For Breakfast

When I arrived at Riverside, I found the fledgling eating the remains of the squirrel that it caught on Monday.  It then spent some time in a few trees east of the playground, before crossing the hightway.

It settled in to the area near the nest, then went closer to the Boat House Café, stopping both on the ground and in a few trees.  One of them was a tree the father used to roost in, so I expected the fledgling to stop.  However, I was surprised to see the fledgling take off and make its way to the other side of the cafe, to the south.

It stopped above a set of dumpsters that are used by the Parks Department and the Café.  The area is full of rodents as a result.  The fledgling settled down about fifteen minutes after the robins and went to sleep. I suspect that the fledgling will be having a nice breakfast after it wakes up!

The video has a treat at the end, a firefly.
