Introducing Brant and Diana

June 02, 2010 - Burlington - Lift Bridge

Sue McCreadie Reports:

I am happy to report that today’s banding went well.  According to Ministry of Natural Resources Biologist Anne Yagi, we have two very healthy chicks.   Their statistics are as follows:

A male who has been named Brant after Joseph Brant, weighing in at 674 grams, banded with  49/Y and he will be wearing a Yellow and Blue leg band.

A female who has been named Diana, Goddess of the Hunt, weighing in at a whopping 969 grams, banded with 39/X and she will be wearing a Red and White leg band.

Now the fun begins.  Given their size and estimated age, the official Fledge Watch will begin in approximately 8 to 10 days (June 10^th).

Photos to follow later.
