Today’s banding went very well and as always a great group of people turned out to meet there peregrine family.
It turns out that there are 4 boys this year all in great health. The adults were busy fending off the intruders on the swing stage during the banding and at one point O’Connor decided to just have a snack and wait for volunteer Kathy to give the chicks back see picture. Christine from property manage had sent out to all tenants a request for names for this offspring and had some wonderful submissions. A draw was done to select the names thanks so much to everyone who sent in the names and who came to watch the banding.
Here is the information on this years brood and bands. colored tape was placed on the Silver band to help the fledge watch team keep track of and identify each chick from street level.
first chick-named Falk weighed 610 grams black band Y34 has blue tape
Second chick-named Charlie weighed 575 grams black band Y35 has Yellow Tape
Third chick-named Lashay weighed 565 grams black band Y36 has White tape
forth chick-named Appolo weighed 590 grams black band Y37 has red tape

Hi Mark, Richard and I checked in on Joe and Virginia on our way back from Pelee. Doesn’t look like a hatch yet. We watched for an hour and she didn’t move. Joe sat nearby on a tree. We’ll check again soon and keep you posted. Cheers,
Lucie

Hi Mark!
Richard and I are in Beachville. Looks like there are eggs!
We have confirmed by their leg band numbers that it’s still the same resident adult pair Joe and Virginia!!

Doug Garbutt Reports:
There have been a few years of frustration with the resident female Trillium who had a passion for eating her own eggs (more than 24 in about 4 years) thankfully she was driven away by 2 juvenile females last summer. The resident male (Buffalo Bill) is still here and the 2nd year Juvie who chased Trillium away & killed Red Bud from Kitchener in a violent battle last year is the new female here. We have not even given her a name yet. However we now have a successful hatch. The young one appeared on about May 19th. There are also 2 more eggs in the nest. Our camera is pooched so it’s difficult to keep tabs on what’s going on but we will do our best.
