I was wondering about Gabba-Gabba too - had never heard of it. It makes me think of names like Blue Foot and Jump Up which were used one year at Hamilton . . .

The four Black Dog chicks were banded. They are:
Female: 1687-30290 90/D b/r Gracie
Female: 1687-30291 91/D b/r Rosalina
Male: 2206-72383 H/24 b/g Gandalf
Male: 2206-72384 H/25 b/g Gabba-GabbaA while back I posted that due to a stack with a gas turbine, three of the four 2008 juvies, the former resident female, Nora, and a juvenile also named Nora were all lost. Pigeon spikes have now been installed on top of the stack to prevent the falcons from perching there. I hope this will avoid any more tragic losses. From Raptor Resource:
Xcel has installed spikes to keep the falcons (and other birds) off the natural gas stack and, according to employee observations, they seem to be working. The installation involved hoisting a worker 320 feet into the air on a crane. He welded spikes around the rim and on a crossbar. A big thanks to Xcel and whoever did the 320 foot-up welding job. Our hats are off to you!
All four chicks fledged, I hope successfully. I haven't seen any of them at the nest for a number of days now.
Alison:
The four Black Dog chicks will soon be fledging. They have all been up on the edge of the nest, and one ventured onto the perch earlier. A parent is quite frequently watching over them from above.
