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!

Thank you BccS for the report on this pair! 

It's Great to know that Jules is happy and has found herself a wonderful mate.  Now, we can only hope for some eggs!

Thanks bccs, VERY happy to hear that Jules is doing so well, 'specially after we all said 'Poor Jules' so many times when she was all alone!  ;D

I have it on pretty good authority that they have been " making babies " ;D
Didn't witness it this morning, but they sure look together to me, Deb

Jules and Beau, circling over my head, yakking up a storm, playing, riding thermals, chasing each other, in slow lazy circles. 
The B&B is a wonderful site, lucky, lucky, me.
Lucky, lucky you is right!  :D
Does all that playing together indicate they are for sure a couple?
(Not that I was really in doubt. ;))

Spent a couple of hours this morning trying to read Beau's band number ... he was cooperating but the wind made it difficult to keep the scope steady AND see through his fluttering feathers at the same time!!

Cold but sunny ...

Well now, I was out and about this morning and as I was walking to my car I heard a very familiar sound. ;D    Then I heard 2 very familiar sounds.  ;D ;D

Jules and Beau, circling over my head, yakking up a storm, playing, riding thermals, chasing each other, in slow lazy circles.  I went to a better vantage point and there they were, no more than 100 feet above me.  Wow oh wow. Spent 20 wonderful minutes just watching and smiling.
The B&B is a wonderful site, lucky, lucky, me.

From April 26th.-May 1st. Beau and Jules seemed to be hanging out allot more at the Bleachers and the Diner...since then they have been seen at the B&B...that's a good thing  ;D
Is the B&B where the new nestbox is, or the old one? :-\
