Banding Day May 17th 2022 Canada Square
May 18, 2022 - Toronto - Canada Square Building - Yonge and Eglinton
Marion Nash Reports:
Steven McGough from Solar Group window washing said of Haven boy this girl gets more aggressive every year and yes true to form Haven gave him a through trouncing and peregrine mom scolding while extracting the chicks. If not for the bravery of these guys we could not have banded the chicks at this site, it’s not easy to find someone willing to take her wrath.
As always I would like to thank Security and Igor from Oxford building Management for helping make this banding happen and for being such great hosts.
There were 4 chicks 2 boys and 1 girl and one too young to tell for sure. The first 3 chicks were all banded but the last was a very late hatch and was at least a week younger than the others and too small for proper sizing of the band so we decided not to band him/her. We did get it weight on this little one at 315 grams and about 12 to 13 days old so we named this chick Jamie. If he/she comes to ground during fledge we will band it before we put it back to the roof. The others were as follows
495 grams boy 20 days old banded C over 28 named Oli with green tape on the silver band
645 grams Girl at 19 Days old banded 08 over AB named Sasha with red tape on her silver band
405 grams boy at 17 days old banded C over 21 named Neven with Yellow tape on the silver band.
We also had a special treat today Monica Brighton of TVO attended, filmed and assisted with the banding this year and we will post some of the video or links to it soon.
