Manitoba Peregrines > West Winnipeg Peregrines
West Winnipeg - 2010 / Beau & Jules
The Peregrine Chick:
Don't take this as gospel, but from their behaviour today (I was visiting with them for hours today), they seem to like the B&B nestbox alot. Or at least today they did. Yesterday they were having a hissy fit over at the Bleachers and I thought they were going to consider nesting there!! I'll have to see where they hang out tomorrow ... but I do think that they should start egg-laying this week. I checked the B&B box today and nothing there yet.
I know, not the yes or no you were looking for, but enough to keep you all guessing!

I was under the impression that the peregrines in West Winnipeg did not yet have a "nestbox" and the "new condo" that TPC installed last weekend was the first "nestbox", or rather a new upgraded one. Why is there a need for 2 nestboxes out there? Is it more likely that they will mate and produce young 'uns with an additional nestbox to choose from? ??? Just wondering.

There are two nestboxes in West Winnipeg. The first box was installed in 2008 and replaced a box that was installed twenty years ago. It was visited by Ivy & Jules in 2008 and in 2009 but they didn't use it. The second nestbox is the condo, its on a different building. It was installed this year and it is of a different design, more along the lines of some of the boxes used elsewhere - sort of like Elk River or U of A but tweaked for the specific location.
