!!! June 2 Banding Day Photos
June 02, 2009 - Toronto - King Street
Frank Butson Reports:
On June 2,hosted by,Sandra Celli,of, Avison Young Property Management, 4 Peregrine Falcon chicks were banded at the 18 King St E. Mark Heaton from MNR and his able assistance had their hands full. Big sister Molly emerged quite Feisty. The room filled with Peregrine Falcon calls. One by one the Peregrine chicks were weighed,sexed,named and given their US Fish and Wildlife band and their Canadian Ministry of Natural Resources Band. Please enjoy the photos of this years young:
1.Molly 853grams 23 days old 98/x
2.Alpin 603grams 22days old 32/y
3.Kendal 536grams 24days old 33/y
4.Spec 378grams 15days 34/y
Spec’s small size surprised us all. There had been 5 eggs and only 4 hatched. We suspect egg 4 didnt hatch and Spec was egg 5,accounting for his difference in age. Extra care was taken in the decision to band him.
