Manitoba Peregrines > Radisson Peregrines
Radisson - 2010 / Ivy & Princess
moka:
Good morning all! After reading last evening's posts, I think we are all in agreement. We want to see peregrine chicks at the Radisson.
We all love Trey, no one more than Tracey who banded him. We do want him to come back but will root and support Princess and her ??? partner.
Still, a persistent voice in the back of my head keeps saying HURRY UP, TREY! there's still time.
Will check back later even though today seems like lousy bird spotting weather.

Wow! - Fascinating stuff Carly!! Poor Male, doing his part probably for nothing. Hard to keep our 'Human' emotions out of it - actually, it's impossible!! :-\ - Let's see what TPC says about our possible scenario with Princess, Trey & Ivy!! 8)

The resident female was displaced a few weeks ago after laying 2 eggs and the new female of course was ignoring the eggs, meanwhile the male wants to keep on incubating them as they are his. There have been some interesting 'discussions' on cam between the two of them over the eggs.
Kate gives an interesting description here of where they are in the nesting sequence. Totally opposite of course from your proposed scenario but it explains the 'female' side of things. Will be interesting to see what TPC says about how Trey would react should he find eggs upon his return, given he would be at a different stage as well!

Very interesting, thanks for the link, Carly.

Leaving the Bay(downtown) across from the Art Gallery around 6:40. Looked up (of course) and very high up- there were 2 falcons circling -going higher- saw them for about 30 seconds and then they disappeared into the cloud cover. Amazing how it's just lucky timing sometimes - didn't see a thing the night before.
