Went for a little ride after work and found Jules at the B&B. She was having a grand old preen, not a care in the world. Didn't see the boy however.

Was on the bus into Winnipeg on Friday and saw somebirdy playing on the wind currents out by what used to be Unicity.  Would that have been either one of these birdies out that way?

Could very well have been, its part of their territory and Unicity is close to the river where they like to hunt.  Could also have been a bird passing through on their way further north - the tundra birds are moving now .

Thank you for the photos Dennis. I look for the WW pair whenever we are in their territory.

And thank you Tracy for the info on Beau's background :)

Still don't know the background of Jules, but we will keep trying to read her band number!  Whom ever she is, she's Jules to us!
Well, that's news to me!  :o I always thought that Jules had already been I.D.'d! ::)

Early Sunday morning, Beau cooperated enough to let me get two looks at his legband.  According to his band number, Beau is a 2007 male from the small innovative breeding program at Parkland Mews Falconry and Bird of Prey Education Centre south of Winnipeg.  I spoke with Rob at Parkland Mews and he said the male hadn't been named because he was being released, so his is officially Beau now!

Still don't know the background of Jules, but we will keep trying to read her band number!  Whom ever she is, she's Jules to us!

How great that we had a part in naming our boy Beau!

That's fantastic!!!!  So he's a local boy!  Breeding program or not, he's from Winnipeg. 
So, Jules picked up a local boy!  That a girl. 
He is our Beau!
And as you wrote TPC, even though we still don't have a positive ID on Jules, she is and always will be Jules to us!
