The bird is an unbanded male picked up from downtown &#8211; likely the male we observed eating at the Radisson on Friday &#8211; and now in the care of the <a href=\"https:\/\/pwildlife.ca\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Prairie Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>High winds, tall buildings and likely Ella and\/or Hart in hot pursuit, its easy to see how a new male could have run into a little trouble.  We are confident that the folks at Prairie Wildlife will do whatever and everything they can for their newest patient.  We are hoping it wasn&#8217;t too hard a knock and that he has a good prognosis &#8211; but we will have to wait and see.  It would be nice not to have an early season mortality like last year when we lost Porter. <\/p>\n<p>Heard today from Prairie Wildlife today and our unbanded male (see how fast we adopt them as &#8220;ours&#8221; once they arrive in town!) appears to be in fine fettle. Some concerns yesterday seem to have resolved themselves (knock on wood) though he does have a sore leg so he&#8217;s going to be staying a bit longer.  His ingratitude for all of the PWRC&#8217;s team&#8217;s hard work on his behalf is a good sign however and we are cautiously optimistic. <\/p>\n<p>With thanks to everyone at PWRC for their help and the photos!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And as it seems that we aren&#8217;t going to ease into this year&#8217;s peregrine season it should come as no surprise that yesterday we had our first injury.
