Radisson - 2009 / Trey & Princess

<< < (1022/1988) > >>

The Peregrine Chick:
0949 hrs (local) - chicks in full coma mode on the nice new gravel in the corner.  For those concerned about them being able to see over the edge of the ledge while on the gravel, you should know that there is only about 1 inch of gravel there now and the chicks could see over the edge of the ledge before the gravel was added (check Pam's photos).  I think they like that the gravel is "soft" and can be hollowed out to be made more comfortable.  Will be interesting to see if this becomes a favourite nap spot when the sun isn't shining on them and they head for the shade ...

Whitehorse:
It is looking rather damp there in Winnipeg, the chicks will be ok with a little rain without mom and dad around?

Thanks to everyone who enabled the pics from today. :D

"Applauding Tracy" Way to go Tracy, it certainly went smoothly and glad it was a good day for you and everyone concerned!

The Peregrine Chick:
Thanks for all the kind words folks, and it was fun, in part because all I had to focus on was the chicks and banding them, everything else was being handled by someone else - Bob with the rivet gun, Larry on the cam, Dennis taking photos (and Bccs making sure Dennis didn't go over the edge), Greg & Kenny from DA Matthews for making sure we got up and down in one-piece, CBC for coordinating all the wonderful buzz and hosting the live-stream and Shaw for keeping the images flowing to the webcam.  And of course CanadInns and the Radisson for enabling us do what we needed to do to help out the peregrines!

And no blood drawn, knees a little red, jeans need to washed thoroughly and a bunch of video to go through .... yippee-skippee! :D
