A big thank you to Jacquie and Mike for getting an ID on their newest peregrine family,, as we have been able to confrim after checking our database that their new resident adult female is non other than “Gleig”, a young peregrine produced in 2009 at the Hamilton Sheraton Hotel nest site. Gleig was banded on June 2nd in 2009 at approx. 28 days old, weighing in at 1049 grams.

It seems our non-banded Peregrine pair at the Buffalo Central Terminal has been replaced with a banded pair this year. Yesterday Mike and I went up to the nest box to check for eggs. There were no eggs in the scrape yet (our only nest without any eggs), but we were able to get a clear view of the female’s leg bands when she landed on the ledge of the box. (I am assuming it is the female, because she was rather large.) She had a silver USFWS band on the right leg and Black/Black 33/X on the left. She is an adult bird, without any lingering brown plumage that we could see.
Happy Peregrine season!
Jacquie
