Finally!! Thanks Alison.  I don't even want to think about her release given what she would be going back to ... 

[Alison]

A new update on Mariah this evening on Imprints. I am so glad she is doing so well. I wonder if they have moved her into a larger area yet.

Mike Allen from the DEC forwarded this very positive update from Mariah’s caretakers.

The doctor was here today and we got a very good look at Mariah’s wing and neck. All the scabs on her wing have dropped off and she has beautiful skin that has grown where they were. Her neck has a big scab that is all dried up and is ready to just fall off. The skin underneath looks great. Mariah’s feathers are in perfect condition. When the time comes, we expect it will be a wonderful release. I love these happy ending stories.

Great news...Mariah's daughter linn has been confirmed at one of the Scarborough sites finally!  And she's not alone and they are in full courtship mode!  A bit later than everyone else but definitely not too late!

Thanks Carly...

Not yet allikat.  She was due to see the vet again today so perhaps tonight or tomorrow we should have another progress report on Mariah.

We need some falcons in Saskatchewan...maybe she could go there? 

Any more news on Mariah and her recovery?

[maggieblue]

Quest is continuing on her travels, borderhopping back and forth between the U.S. and Canada.  She has been as far west as Napoleon, Ohio and most recently has been back in Canada.  The 2 most recent reports located her at Nottawasaga Bay west of Orilla.  Isn't that Ontario cottage country?  Maybe someone will spot her on the May long weekend.  Or, if she only continued northwest she could make it to Manitoba.  Go west Quest 

[Alison]

Welcome to Canada, Quest! I wonder where she is headed. Mariah and Kaver's juvies have had a tendency to head north - Freedom, Skye, Linn, Rhea Mae, Ranger . . .

these New York birds love Ontario. but Alberta is good also. or Saskatchewan . we need some there.

what have you told them Loriann
an I am so happy that my girl Mariah is doing so well. 

[carly]

Would be very cool if she went out to see you TPC...Go West Young Girl..Go West

Mariah's daughter from last year Quest (transmitter girl  ) is on the move and is now north of Toronto!!!!  Maybe she wanted to visit Rhea Mae and see where Linn has gone to !!

She'll probably be quite transient for at least this year, maybe next year too.  Going to be interesting to see where she wanders to - will she stay in the east or will she head west along the Great Lakes and then onto the Prairies and all the potholes/marshes where there are lots of other young (non-breeding) peregrines.  Don't believe we have ever had an eastern bird out west so it would be cool if she were the first given what we know of her history and connections in the east.

[Loriann]

wow.. she's gone up to see my sister in Mansfield..  or she heard all about our big strong Canadian boys and wanted to try out some of our sweet MAPLE sugar men.........
