OH! - and after Day 8 is 'The Farewell' don't forget that part. :D
Kinderchick:
Ah, very interesting, ballywing... I will go back and read her Blog from 2008. :)
ballywing:
Yes, To make a long story short - TPC went and 'borrowed' some chicks from Edmonton I think it was ??? - in hopes that P&T would 'adopt' them as they'd just lost their own chicks. TPC worked day & night, feeding, transporting, watching, she put the 3 chicks in the nestbox & babysat them there. - There are some great photos and the whole fascinating story in the Peregrine Chick Blog, you must read it!!! ;D.... (Check out the 2008 Blog 'The Parent Trap - Days 1-8) Unfortunately, P&T said 'Thanks but No Thanks' and the chicks had to go back. :-\ The Phanatics found out via the Blog story after it was all over, it was a top secret project! 8)

Did we have foster chicks here in 2008? :-\ I don't remember that. Wasn't that the year that the 3 chicks drowned at the Radisson downtown? Were there foster chicks in West Winnipeg?

...There is no such thing as "hack-bred" but rather "hack-released"...
Does that help to sort out the confusion Kinderchick?

Very interesting. Yes, that certainly does help me, TPC. Thank you! :D
