Location Description:

11:00 a.m.. Still, drizzling, mild. Garage Roof

Location Name:

742 St. Patrick St., Victoria, BC

General Remarks:

It appears to be crying at another adult on the roof. This one on the garage roof not the same as the lamey (?_) one, but we think it's one that used to come last year. The adult seems to take charge without acknowledging the presence of the crying one. When I threw bread onto roof of garage, the adult (this crying one) (?...) which flew in for it in silence as if it had first claim. It also seemed to have a stronger more vital action even though there was different markings indicating younger bird.
